Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the site is suitable for a new independent dwelling, bearing in mind the settlement policies of the development plan, the accessibility of the site, and its impact on the character and appearance of the countryside
- Whether the building could reasonably operate as an annexe to the main dwelling, and whether such occupation would overcome any policy conflict or other harm
What decided it
The proposal, assessed as an annexe tied to the main dwelling rather than an independent dwelling, would accord with development plan policies by avoiding creation of a separate planning unit in the countryside and reducing overall vehicle dependency through multi-generational family co-location.
Plan policies cited: Policy 1, Policy 2, Policy 3, Policy 7, Policy 9, Policy 12, Policy 21, Policy 23, Policy C1, Policy T1
