Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the proposed development would comply with the spatial strategy for the area with regard to the location of housing development
  • the effects of the development on the character and appearance of the village and surrounding countryside
  • the weight to be given to the need for sites for self / custom-build housing

What decided it

The conflict with the development plan's spatial strategy for housing location, combined with the inability to secure the self/custom-build delivery through a Section 106 agreement, meant that material considerations did not justify allowing the proposal contrary to the development plan.
