- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
- Flood risk
What decided it
The proposed development conflicts with the development plan and Framework on three independent grounds—unsustainable location outside the settlement hierarchy, significant adverse effect on rural character and appearance, and failure to pass the sequential flood risk test—with no material considerations including the fallback position outweighing these conflicts.
Framework references: 59, 60
