Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the location of the proposed development would be acceptable with specific regard to the principle thereof, the Council's spatial strategy and access to services
What decided it
The proposal's location outside any defined settlement boundary conflicts with the Council's spatial strategy and housing policies, and this conflict cannot be overcome by the limited material benefits offered, particularly given the Council's demonstrated five-year housing land supply.
The benefits of allowing the development, including removing the conflict between employment and residential uses, would not outweigh the conflict caused to the Council's housing strategy
