Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on highway safety with particular regard to the junction of Poyser Lane and Moor Lane
  • The effect of the proposed development on below ground archaeology with particular regard to the 'Section of Roman road to the north-east of Moor Lane, Kirk Langley' Scheduled Monument
  • The effect of the proposed development on ecology

What decided it

The unacceptable impact on highway safety at the junction of Poyser Lane and Moor Lane, combined with the absence of required archaeological and ecological information to demonstrate no harm to designated heritage assets and protected species, means the proposal conflicts with the development plan and material considerations do not indicate it should be decided otherwise.
