Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effects of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
  • highway safety

What decided it

The combination of unacceptable harm to trees and woodland contributing to the area's character and appearance, and unacceptable impact on highway safety from intensified use of an inadequate access, outweighed the modest tourism and economic benefits.

The modest benefits of tourism development and local economic support were insufficient to outweigh the identified harm to character and appearance through loss of or damage to trees and woodland, and the unacceptable impact on highway safety.
