Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development upon the character and appearance of the area, with particular regard to its siting, design, and density
  • Whether the financial contribution towards affordable housing is reasonable and necessary to make the development acceptable

What decided it

The proposal accords with the development plan when taken as a whole, with the character and appearance concerns satisfactorily addressed through the siting, design and materials of the single-storey dwelling, and the SPA integrity protected through the mitigation measures in the Unilateral Undertaking.
