Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the appeal site is an appropriate location for the development having regard to the local spatial strategy
- the effect of the development upon the character and appearance of the area
- the effect of the development upon the Visually Important Undeveloped Area
- whether the development preserves or enhances the significance of Keld Head Conservation Area
What decided it
The appeal site is located outside the development limits in open countryside where development is restricted by RLP Policy SP1, and the appellant failed to demonstrate that the self-storage use would qualify for any of the policy exceptions or that it could not be located on a sequentially preferable site.
Framework references: 12, 16
Plan policies cited: Policy SP1, Policy SP6, Policy SP9, Policy SP11, Policy SP12, Policy SP13, Policy SP16, Policy SP17, Policy SP18, Policy SP20
