Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the site represents an appropriate location for the proposed development, having regard to access to services and facilities on foot
  • whether the development would be at risk from flooding
  • whether the proposal would make adequate provision for affordable housing

What decided it

The development fails to accord with the development plan on three independent grounds: unsustainable location due to lack of safe pedestrian access to services, failure to undertake a sequential flood risk test, and failure to provide affordable housing.
