Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the site is a suitable location for the proposal having regard to local and national planning policy, and the accessibility of the site to services, employment opportunities and facilities
- the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the local area with particular regard to the local landscape and the countryside as a whole
- the effect of the proposal on European protected sites
What decided it
The site's proximity to the settlement boundary, the presence of surrounding residential development, and the accessibility to services via public transport in nearby larger settlements, combined with the proposal's compliance with the character and appearance of the area and adequate mitigation for protected sites, justified allowing the appeal.
