Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the appeal site is a suitable location for the proposed development, having regard to the development plan
  • the effect of the proposed development on the integrity of the designated habitat sites

What decided it

The fallback position of the previously approved caravan on plot 6 meant the appeal scheme would replace rather than introduce new holiday accommodation, thereby complying with CS Policy EC 10 and not undermining the development plan's settlement hierarchy.
