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

What decided it

The site lies outside the settlement boundary and would constitute encroachment of built development into the countryside, conflicting with the spatial development strategy in both the adopted and emerging local plans and causing harm to the character and appearance of the National Park.
