Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the principle of the proposed development would provide a suitable location for housing, having regard to the development strategy for the area and to the accessibility of services and facilities
- The effect on the character and appearance of the area
What decided it
The substantial and long-lasting harms arising from the unsustainable location and harm to character and appearance significantly and demonstrably outweigh the moderate benefits of housing provision, even in the context of a shortfall in five-year housing land supply.
The adverse impacts of unsustainable location and harm to character and appearance, attracting substantial weight, significantly and demonstrably outweighed the moderate weight benefits of housing provision, economic benefits and New Homes Bonus contribution, applying the tilted balance under paragraph 11 of the Framework.
