Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

The effect of the siting and appearance of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area and if any harm would occur, whether this is outweighed by the need for the installation to be sited as proposed taking into account any suitable alternatives

What decided it

The appellant did not provide sufficient evidence to demonstrate that alternative sites were unsuitable or that the search for alternatives was robust, and therefore failed to justify why the installation must be sited at the appeal site despite the identified harm to character and appearance.

What the Inspector cited

Development plan policies: Policy IN11Policy P2
National Planning Policy Framework: Paragraph 119Paragraph 121

How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
