Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the appeal site is a suitable location for the proposed development having regard to the local development strategy for the area and the accessibility of services and facilities
- the effect on the character and appearance of the area
- the effect on the integrity of designated sites of nature conservation
What decided it
The absence of a legal agreement to secure mitigation for impacts on the Northumbria Coast SPA and North Northumberland Dunes SAC, combined with the unsustainable location and significant adverse effects on rural character and appearance, meant the proposal conflicted with the development plan as a whole with no material considerations to indicate otherwise.
