Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the site is a suitable location for the proposed development
  • whether the site would provide a self-build dwelling in accordance with the policies of the development plan
  • the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
  • the effect of the proposed development on the habitats sites

What decided it

The Council's failure to grant sufficient permissions to meet its statutory duty to provide self-build and custom housebuilding plots, combined with the appellant's commitment to deliver a self-build dwelling through a planning obligation, outweighed the limited conflict with development plan locational policies.
