Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area, having particular regard to the location of the site within the Dorset National Landscape
What decided it
The proposed cladding would erode the unity of the estate's design and character by introducing an artificial material that is visually conspicuous and inconsistent with the distinctive common palette of brick, render and stone, thereby conflicting with development plan policies on design quality and local distinctiveness.
Plan policies cited: Policy E1, Policy E12, Policy 2 of the Arne Parish Neighbourhood Plan 2018 – 2034
