Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
What decided it
The proposed development would harm the character and appearance of the Area of Special Local Character through poor design and lack of architectural detailing, and would adversely affect the open character of the adjacent Metropolitan Open Land, and this significant harm would outweigh the modest housing supply benefit in circumstances where the Framework requires particular regard to good design.
The modest benefit of one dwelling contributing to housing supply in an area with a shortfall was outweighed by the significant harm to the character and appearance of the Area of Special Local Character and the adverse effect on the open character of the adjacent Metropolitan Open Land
