Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area, with particular regard to Nidderdale National Landscape
What decided it
The substantial harm to the character and appearance of Nidderdale National Landscape caused by the domestic appearance and incongruous glazing, particularly in the northern elevation, was not outweighed by the moderate housing and economic benefits, and the Framework policies protecting National Landscapes provided a strong reason for refusal in the context of a shortfall in housing land supply.
The substantial harm to Nidderdale National Landscape was not outweighed by the moderate benefits of housing delivery, effective use of land, biodiversity net gain, and economic benefits; the Framework policies protecting National Landscapes provided a strong reason for refusal.
