®Planning appeal decision
Mayfield, Breadon Heath, Ellesmere, Shropshire, SY13 2LG
Planning appeal 3340161 at Mayfield, Breadon Heath, Ellesmere, Shropshire, SY13 2LG (Shropshire County Council) was dismissed on 17 June 2024 by Inspector Marshall E, by written representations. The main issue, as the Inspector framed it: Whether the proposal would result in an oversized house type to the plot within a rural area and whether this would then impact upon the maintenance of a supply of smaller, less expensive properties and retention of a mix of house sizes in accordance with the aims of Local Plan policy.
