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.
