Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
- the effect of the proposed development on protected species
What decided it
The proposed development would harmfully urbanise the open and rural character of this edge-of-village location and encroach into open countryside, contrary to Policy D4, and this significant harm significantly and demonstrably outweighs the limited benefits even under the tilted balance.
the significant harm to character and appearance and the unresolved protected species issue significantly and demonstrably outweighed the limited social and economic benefits of providing two additional homes
