What decided it
The site's location in a village with virtually no services or facilities and infrequent public transport, combined with the lack of demonstrated local need, makes it unsuitable for new residential development contrary to Policies 3 and 14 of the Core Strategy and paragraphs 82-84 of the Framework.
Framework references: 82, 83, 84, 135
