Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the development would be in an appropriate location with regard to the Council's spatial strategy for development
- whether the development would be in an appropriate location with regard to flood risk
What decided it
The existence of a real and implementable fallback position allowing conversion of the existing agricultural buildings to three dwellings, which would result in an almost identical development with similar sustainability and flood risk characteristics, provided material considerations sufficient to outweigh the development plan conflicts.
