Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposed development would be suitable within the countryside, with particular regard to the character and appearance of the surrounding area

What decided it

The proposal complies with the development plan as a whole, particularly Policy CP11 which permits countryside-based enterprises that contribute to recreation and enjoyment of the countryside without excessive encroachment, and the material considerations do not indicate a decision should be made otherwise.

Framework references: 57

Plan policies cited: Policy CP11, Policy CP1, Policy CP3, Policy TB21, Policy CC03, Policy CC01
