Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the appeal site is a suitable location for new residential development having regard to the development plan and access to local services and facilities
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
What decided it
The proposal fails to meet the criteria of Policy 7(3) of the Local Plan as it would not enhance the building's immediate setting and would cause significant harm to the character and appearance of the rural area, whilst the location is unsuitable for residential development due to poor access to services and facilities and reliance on private motorised transport.
Plan policies cited: Policy 7(3), Policy 1, Policy 2, Policy 12, Policy 21, Policy 23, Policy HT3, Policy HT4, Policy C1, Policy T1
