Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the development is appropriate development in the Marton Moss Strategic Site
  • Whether the development preserves the character and appearance of the locality and the Marton Moss Conservation Area
  • Whether the development preserves green infrastructure
  • Whether the development incorporates sustainable drainage

What decided it

The development conflicts with the spatial strategy for Marton Moss and causes harm to the character and appearance of the Conservation Area that cannot be outweighed by any identified public benefits.
