Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the appeal site would be a suitable location for the proposed development, having regard to local policy
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the surrounding area
- the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the occupiers of Bridge Barn with regard to privacy and outlook
What decided it
The appeal site is located outside the settlement boundary in an unsustainable rural location that fails to comply with Policy SP03, and the proposed dwelling would cause significant harm to the character and appearance of the surrounding area contrary to Policies LP17 and LP24.
