Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposed development would be suitably located within the settlement of Ramsden Bellhouse, having regard to the need to apply the sequential test for main town centre uses, site accessibility and the effect of the proposed uses and the associated activities on the character of the area
What decided it
The proposal would result in unacceptable levels of traffic and commercial activity in a residential area with poor accessibility, contrary to the Framework's requirements for sustainable development and the protection of local character.
