Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the surrounding area, with particular regard to the Chiltern National Landscape
  • whether the proposal is a suitable form of development having regard to the spatial strategy for the area

What decided it

The proposal constitutes redevelopment of previously developed land (the existing manège) that respects rural character and would not significantly impact the landscape character or natural beauty of the National Landscape, thereby complying with the spatial strategy for the area.
