Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the site would be a suitable location for housing, having regard to the development plan spatial strategy for the supply of housing
- The effect of the proposal on highway safety with regard to future occupier access to public transport
- Whether the proposed development would provide acceptable living conditions for future occupants, with particular reference to light and noise
- The effect of the proposal on biodiversity and existing trees
What decided it
The proposal's location in unsuitable countryside outside the settlement boundary, combined with unacceptable highway safety implications and unmitigated noise and light impacts on future occupiers, outweighed the minor economic and social benefits of two additional dwellings.
