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, with specific reference to the character and appearance of the surroundings, including with regard to its landscape setting
What decided it
The engagement of the presumption in favour of sustainable development due to the Council's inability to demonstrate a 5-year housing land supply, combined with the proposal's alignment with the Framework's objective to significantly boost housing supply in a location with good access to services, outweighed the conflict with the development plan's growth management strategy.
the modest housing and economic benefits of the 3-4 dwellings, together with the presumption in favour of sustainable development under NPPF paragraph 11d)ii, outweighed the conflict with the development plan's housing distribution strategy and growth management policies
