Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether or not the site would be a suitable location for housing, having regard to the accessibility of services and facilities and the provisions of the development plan
- the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
- the effect of the proposed development on the setting of The Thatches and Vine Cottage grade II listed buildings, and the adjacent non-designated heritage asset
What decided it
The site's location outside settlement boundaries in an area with poor accessibility to services and facilities, combined with harm to character and appearance and failure to preserve the setting of a non-designated heritage asset, collectively outweighed the limited benefits of providing an additional dwelling.
