Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on highway safety having regard to the nature of surrounding roads, access to the site and parking
  • whether the proposed development would be in an accessible location

What decided it

The lack of sufficient detail and clarity relating to site access and parking arrangements meant the proposed development could be harmful to highway safety and could not accord with policy SP15, and the site's remote location conflicted with policy SP7's accessibility requirement.

What the Inspector cited

Development plan policies
SP15SP7
National Planning Policy Framework
Paragraph 102

How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
