Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the appeal site is a suitable location for a new dwelling

What decided it

The building is redundant to the appellant's needs, would not materially change in character or appearance, and the site is not isolated given its context within a cluster of dwellings near Winsford, thereby meeting the requirements of policies STRAT 1, STRAT 8, STRAT 9, STRAT 10, R1 and DM22.
