Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area
- the living conditions of occupants of neighbouring residential properties, having particular regard to pollution, including noise and disturbance
- highway safety
What decided it
The harmful effects on the character and appearance of the rural area, living conditions of neighbouring residents through noise and disturbance, and highway safety from large commercial vehicles on unsuitable narrow rural lanes collectively outweigh the economic benefits of the joinery workshop use.
