Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the surrounding countryside and the Area of Great Landscape Value (AGLV)
whether the proposal would be a suitable location for housing, having regard to the Council's spatial strategy and the provisions of the Framework

What decided it

The appeal site's status as former curtilage of Maybanks, its adjacency to existing residential development, and its untidy overgrown condition meant the proposal would appear as a well-designed extension to existing development rather than harmful countryside development, while its proximity to sustainable transport options and services made it a suitable location for housing.
