Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the access proposed as part of the development on the character and appearance of the area

What decided it

The fallback position of the extant planning permission for a similar development with an access off the turning head, given considerable weight as a material consideration, meant the proposed access would have a comparable effect and therefore not constitute unacceptable harm to character and appearance.
