Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

whether condition 5 is necessary and reasonable, having regards to the location of the site and the development strategy for the area
the effect that varying condition 5 would have on vehicle movements, parking and consequently local amenity

What decided it

The Inspector concluded that condition 5 is necessary and reasonable to protect the rural character of the area outside the settlement boundary and to prevent unacceptable effects on local amenity from increased vehicle movements and parking, with insufficient evidence that retail sales would sustain the existing agricultural enterprise.

Plan policies cited: Policy EQ3, Policy CF1, Policy EQ5
