Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

whether the proposed dwelling would be in a suitable location having regard to development plan policies
the effect of the proposed development upon designated heritage assets

What decided it

The proposal conflicts with Policy D4 of the development plan both in locating outside the existing developed footprint of the village and in causing less-than-substantial harm to the heritage significance of the listed Poplars Farmhouse without clear and convincing justification.

What the Inspector cited

Development plan policies: Policy D4 of the Vale of Aylesbury Local Plan (2021)
