Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the Cornwall National Landscape and World Heritage Site
  • whether the site provides a suitable location for the proposed development

What decided it

The harmful effect on the character and appearance of the National Landscape, which provides a strong reason for refusal under paragraph 11d(i) of the Framework and outweighs the modest contribution to local housing supply.

the modest contribution to local housing supply was given moderate weight but was not sufficient to outweigh the much greater weight attached to harm to the National Landscape
