Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether Condition 2 is necessary and reasonable having regard to the effect of the proposed use of the fishing lake on highway safety along Barrowden Road

What decided it

The removal of Condition 2 would not lead to harm to highway safety and therefore its retention is neither necessary nor reasonable, with the proposal generating only a negligible absolute increase in traffic on a lightly trafficked rural road.
