Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposed development would be appropriate to its countryside location, having regard to the spatial strategy of the development plan
- whether the proposed development would have an acceptable effect on the character and appearance of the area
- whether the proposed development would accord with local and national planning policy relating to flood risk
- whether the proposed development would make appropriate provision for biodiversity
What decided it
The proposal's fundamental conflict with the development plan's spatial strategy, which strictly controls countryside development to uses essential to its functioning, could not be overcome by the acknowledged economic and social benefits of supporting a growing specialist business.
