Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effects of the development upon the Northumbria Coast Special Protection Area and Ramsar Site (SPA and RAMSAR) and the Northumberland Shore Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI)
- whether the development would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Cramlington Village Conservation Area (CA)
What decided it
The absence of adequate mitigation measures secured through a legal agreement to address adverse effects on the SPA, RAMSAR and SSSI from increased recreational activity was determinative and outweighed the benefits of housing supply and preservation of conservation area character.
