Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on designated nature conservation sites
  • the living conditions of adjoining occupiers

What decided it

The proposed development would adversely affect the integrity of designated nature conservation sites and the Habitats Regulations require that permission must not be granted, as the necessary mitigation could not be adequately secured and the provision of three shepherd huts for B&B accommodation does not amount to imperative reasons of overriding public interest.
