Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

whether the appeal site would provide a suitable location for the proposal, having regard to the local development strategy and the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
whether the proposal would preserve or enhance the Outstanding Universal Value (the OUV) of the Cornwall and West Devon Mining Landscape World Heritage Site (the WHS)
the effect of the proposal on highway safety

What decided it

The proposal would conflict with the local development strategy by not constituting rounding off, would cause harm to the World Heritage Site's Outstanding Universal Value that outweighs limited public benefits, and would result in highway safety concerns at the B3298 junction.

Plan policies cited: Policy 2, Policy 3, Policy 7, Policy 12, Policy 21, Policy 23, Policy 24, Policy 27

What an account adds

Draw a red line around your site and the appraisal follows.

Heritage. Listed buildings by grade and distance, conservation areas, scheduled monuments, registered parks and gardens, heritage at risk.
Landscape and environment. Green belt, national parks and national landscapes, SSSIs, ancient woodland, SPA, SAC and Ramsar sites, nutrient catchments.
Flooding. Flood zones 2 and 3, surface water, and both again with climate change.
Transport. The 800 metre station catchment and service frequency, bus stops with their weekday frequency, the cycle network, and the Framework’s transport tests measured for the site.

Then the development plan position, the housing land supply as an Inspector last accepted it, and every appeal decided around the site with its letter.

Every English appeal since 2016, with the letter behind it wherever the Inspectorate published one. Searched by meaning as well as by words, with the key case law counted live across the letters.

Casework that chases the deadlines. Applications, appeals and conditions with their statutory dates.

The judgement stays yours. The tool gathers the material and dates it.
