Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the site would be a suitable location for the proposed development having regard to the Council's development plan policies governing such proposals within the Green Wedge
  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the site and surrounding area
  • Whether sufficient information has been submitted in respect of noise, highways and drainage

What decided it

The proposed development conflicts with Green Wedge policy as it is neither demonstrated to be non-detrimental to the Green Wedge's functions nor essential to be located there, and could be more suitably located in an industrial/employment area.
