Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the site would be suitable for the proposed development, with particular reference to national and local policy for the provision of Gypsy and Traveller sites, highway safety and the accessibility of services and facilities
- Whether the site would be suitable for the proposed development, with reference to its access to necessary utilities
What decided it
The site's proximity to Lopcombe Corner and the nearby village of Winterslow, which offers an adequate range of facilities within reasonable distance, combined with the ability to secure safe vehicular access and adequate utility provision, means the proposal accords with Core Policy 47 and national policy for Gypsy and Traveller sites.
Framework references: 11
Plan policies cited: Core Policy 47, Core Policy 50, Core Policy 60, Core Policy 61
