Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the appeal site is a suitable location for the development including, but not limited to, the effect on the character and appearance of the area
What decided it
The site's location outside the settlement boundary in open countryside with no demonstrated need for development there, combined with the unacceptable harm to the rural character and appearance of the area, means the proposal is not a suitable location and conflicts with the development plan.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy 1 (Spatial Strategy)Policy 2 (Development Management)
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 84
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.
