Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal would make an efficient use of land, having regard to the size of the units and the need for efficient use of land within the urban area
- The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area, having regard to overall bulk, mass, height and depth of the proposed buildings
What decided it
The proposal accords with the development plan as a whole and makes efficient use of land in a sustainable location with housing land supply shortfall, supporting the appeal.
The modest housing contribution in a sustainable location, in the context of a five-year housing land supply shortfall, outweighed any concerns and supported allowing the appeal.
