Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposal in relation to Plot 79 on the ecological corridor, including the effect on the integrity of the South Hams Special Area of Conservation (SAC) Greater Horseshoe Bat Sustenance Zone for Bulkamore Iron Mine SSSI/SAC
- the character and appearance of the area
What decided it
The proposal would not materially change the originally agreed mitigation for effects on the SAC or undermine the purposes of the dark corridor, as access would be managed by the management company and there would be no change to lighting, significant planting loss, or domestic garden extension into the corridor.
