Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the location of the site is suitable for the proposal having particular regard to the accessibility of services and facilities and relevant provisions of the development plan
  • the effect of the proposal on the landscape and scenic beauty of the Shropshire Hills National Landscape

What decided it

The development's location in an isolated, poorly accessible area remote from services and facilities, combined with significant harm to the landscape and scenic beauty of the National Landscape, outweighs the limited economic benefits.
