Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
  • whether the appeal site is an appropriate location for the proposed development having regard to the development plan
  • the implications of any fallback position

What decided it

The harm to the character and appearance of the area from the proposed dwelling significantly and demonstrably outweighed the minor benefits of the scheme, even under the tilted balance.

The distinct and notable harm to character and appearance significantly and demonstrably outweighed the minor benefits (environmental credentials, multi-generational living, economic benefits) even applying the tilted balance under paragraph 11d.
