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, with specific reference to the character and appearance of the surroundings including the Cotswolds National Landscape
What decided it
The absence of a 5-year housing land supply and the application of the tilted balance under Framework paragraph 11, whereby the minor landscape harm and conflict with development plan policies were outweighed by the benefits of contributing to housing supply.
the minor, localised landscape harm and conflict with development plan policies were outweighed by the benefits of boosting housing supply, with the harm to the National Landscape not amounting to a strong reason for refusal
Framework references: 11
Plan policies cited: Wiltshire Core Strategy Policy 1, Wiltshire Core Strategy Policy 2, Wiltshire Core Strategy Policy 51, Wiltshire Core Strategy Policy 57, Wiltshire Core Strategy CP1, Wiltshire Core Strategy CP2
