Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area including the extent it would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Aylsham Conservation Area
- Whether or not the appeal site is an appropriate location for the proposed dwelling having regard to the development plan policies relating to development outside settlement limits and its accessibility to services and facilities
What decided it
The significant adverse impact on the character and appearance of the Aylsham Conservation Area, combined with the location being outside the settlement boundary and not representing a sustainable location, clearly outweighed the benefits of housing supply and self-build provision.
The significant benefits of housing supply, self-build provision, and economic benefits were outweighed by the great weight afforded to the harm to the character and appearance of the conservation area and the moderate weight afforded to the location being inappropriate and unsustainable.
