Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the appeal site is in a suitable location for the proposed dwelling having regard to the development plan
  • the effect on the character and appearance of the area
  • if harm is found, whether there are other material considerations that would be sufficient to outweigh the identified harm

What decided it

The proposal conflicts with the development plan by introducing new housing into the countryside contrary to Policies GP3 and H13, and the design, scale, bulk and siting of the dwelling would cause harmful effects on character and appearance contrary to Policies GP1, DW2 and EN4, with no material considerations of sufficient weight to outweigh this harm.
