Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the static caravan element of the development would be acceptable with regard to the Council's spatial strategy
- The effect of the development on the vitality and viability of town and district centres
- The effect of the development on the living conditions of the occupiers of the neighbouring dwelling known as 'Westlands', with particular regard to noise and disturbance
What decided it
The failure to demonstrate compliance with the sequential test for the tea room use and the harmful effect on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers at Westlands through noise and disturbance, combined with the lack of evidence that the proposal would not harm the vitality and viability of town and district centres.
The modest economic benefits of additional activity in a relatively accessible location were outweighed by the harmful effects on the vitality and viability of town and district centres and the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers.
