Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposed development would be in a suitable location, taking account of its effect on character and appearance, including the scenic beauty of the Cornwall National Landscape
What decided it
The significant benefits of the scheme—notably the ongoing protection of TPO trees, the proposed native planting scheme, the quality of the design, and the removal of dilapidated buildings—clearly outweighed the very limited conflicts with the development plan and demonstrated that the development would preserve and enhance the character and appearance of the area and the scenic beauty of the National Landscape.
The significant benefits of the scheme, including tree protection, planting enhancement, design quality and removal of dilapidated buildings, outweighed the very limited conflicts with LP Policy 7, NP Policy W2 and CEDPD Policy G3, indicating that permission should be granted
