Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effects of the proposals on the character and appearance of the area
  • whether the appeal sites are appropriate locations for the developments proposed with reference to their vulnerability to flooding
  • the effects of the proposals on biodiversity

What decided it

The proposals would cause significant harm to the character and appearance of the area through loss of tree cover and visual intrusion within a defined Important Landscape Area, the sequential test for flood risk was not passed, and unacceptable effects on biodiversity could not be ruled out.

Framework references: 88, 135, 168, 186, 187
