Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposed rural worker's dwelling, which would be associated with the existing equestrian business, would be of an appropriate size
What decided it
The proposed dwelling was found to be unduly large and its size unjustified as commensurate with the functional and financial needs of the equestrian enterprise, resulting in conflict with Policy S4.
The limited weight attributable to the housing supply contribution and support for the rural economy did not outweigh the conflict with Policy S4 arising from the unjustified size of the dwelling
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy S4
How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
