Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposed campsite and music studio would be in a suitable location having regard to accessibility and to relevant development plan policies
  • Whether there would be an unacceptable risk to highway safety due to the increased use of May Lane by caravans and motorhomes or from use of the site exit onto Delph Lane
  • The effect on the character and appearance of the countryside which is within the Forest of Bowland National Landscape

What decided it

The proposal conforms to the development plan policies supporting holiday accommodation and employment uses in the countryside, and there would be no material harm to highway safety or the National Landscape character.

Framework references: 85

Plan policies cited: Policy SP4, Policy EP9, Policy SP2, Policy CDMP6, Policy SP5
