Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area, including the Ranmoor Conservation Area

What decided it

The absence of a five-year housing land supply engaged the tilted balance under paragraph 11(d) of the Framework, and the modest housing benefits of two additional net dwellings outweighed the absence of any significant adverse impacts on the conservation area.

The modest social and economic benefits of housing supply and construction jobs, together with modest environmental benefits from design and landscaping, outweighed the absence of significant adverse impacts, with the proposal representing sustainable development under the Framework read as a whole.

Framework references: 11, 131, 135, 210, 57

Plan policies cited: Policy CS 31, Policy CS 74, Policy H14, Policy BE15, Policy BE16
