Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the site is suitable for residential development, having regard to its location, the proposed land use and the amount of development

What decided it

The site is in a suitable location for self-build housing within a larger village, well-related to existing built form and within walking distance of services, and the proposal accords with the development plan read as a whole.

The benefits of housing supply, self-build and custom-build housing delivery, economic benefits, and the sustainable location weighed significantly in favour of the proposal, and no material considerations had sufficient weight to warrant a decision otherwise than in accordance with the development plan.
