Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the site is a suitable location for residential development, having regard to the development plan and other material considerations

What decided it

The adverse impacts to the character and appearance of the village, particularly the harm to the historic landscape, significantly and demonstrably outweighed the limited benefits of a single dwelling's contribution to housing supply and modest local economic uplift.
