Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether or not the appeal site would represent an appropriate location for the proposed development with particular regard to its existing status as a Scattered Business Site

What decided it

The proposal conflicts with Policy DM5 of the development plan by failing to demonstrate that the Scattered Business Site is no longer practicable for employment use, and the loss of the majority of the site for employment purposes would be unacceptably harmful.

Plan policies cited: Policy DM5, Policy DM6
