Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposed development is in a suitable location for housing
What decided it
The site lies outside a defined Settlement Development Boundary in a predominantly rural location, and the development plan's overriding spatial objective to focus development within identified settlements is not outweighed by the limited contribution of a single dwelling to housing supply.
The limited contribution to housing supply from a single dwelling does not outweigh the harm to the Council's spatial approach to development and the conflict with the development plan's settlement hierarchy
