Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

whether the appeal site is in an acceptable location for housing
the effects of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
whether the proposal makes adequate provision for affordable housing

What decided it

The significant harm to character and appearance and conflict with the development plan's spatial strategy, when weighed against the moderate benefits of housing delivery and economic gains under the tilted balance, resulted in adverse impacts significantly and demonstrably outweighing the benefits.

the significant harm to character and appearance and conflict with spatial strategy principles outweighed the moderate benefits of four new dwellings, affordable housing contribution, and economic and social benefits

What an account adds

Draw a red line around your site and the appraisal follows.

Heritage. Listed buildings by grade and distance, conservation areas, scheduled monuments, registered parks and gardens, heritage at risk.
Landscape and environment. Green belt, national parks and national landscapes, SSSIs, ancient woodland, SPA, SAC and Ramsar sites, nutrient catchments.
Flooding. Flood zones 2 and 3, surface water, and both again with climate change.
Transport. The 800 metre station catchment and service frequency, bus stops with their weekday frequency, the cycle network, and the Framework’s transport tests measured for the site.
