Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the site and the surrounding area
- whether the proposed development would be in a suitable location for housing with regard to the local development strategy and accessibility to services and facilities
- whether the proposed development would provide satisfactory living conditions to the future occupiers
- whether the proposed development would provide adequate waste facilities
What decided it
The proposed development would harm the character and appearance of the area, be located in an unsustainable location requiring reliance on private vehicles, and fail to provide satisfactory living conditions due to noise from adjacent agricultural use.
