Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect on the character and appearance of the area, with particular regard to the Corsley Heath to Chapmanslade Greensand Ridge Special Landscape Area (SLA)

What decided it

The functional and financial justification for the agricultural worker's dwelling, combined with the sensitive design and siting that would mitigate visual impact through screening, topography, and landscaping, meant the proposal would not harm the character and appearance of the Special Landscape Area.
