Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area as a result of the loss of the open space

What decided it

The benefits of delivering one additional dwelling and one self-build plot would not significantly and demonstrably outweigh the significant harm to the character and appearance of the area resulting from the loss of the open space.

The moderate benefits of delivering one additional dwelling to the housing land supply and one self-build dwelling to address the self-build shortfall did not significantly and demonstrably outweigh the significant harm to the character and appearance of the area from the loss of openness and spaciousness.
