Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the proposed development would be in a suitable location, having regard to its location within the countryside
  • the proposal's effect on the character and appearance of the area

What decided it

The proposal's location in the countryside outside the settlement boundary, combined with the Council's ability to demonstrate a deliverable housing supply and the absence of any explanation why the houses could not be accommodated elsewhere in accordance with the spatial strategy, meant the development would not be in a suitable location and would conflict with the development plan as a whole.
