Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether permission should be granted for residential development in the countryside unsupported by policy
- Whether the development affects the character and appearance of the surrounding countryside
- Whether the development provides acceptable living conditions for its occupant
- Whether the development is vulnerable to flood risk
What decided it
The personal circumstances of the elderly occupier and the likely severe disruption to his established home life if enforcement were carried out, combined with insufficient information about flood risks and alternative security arrangements, justified granting a temporary permission despite development plan conflicts.
