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
What decided it
The site qualifies as grey belt previously developed land with evidenced unmet housing need and satisfactory sustainable location, and the proposal would not be inappropriate development in the Green Belt, such that Policy S5-5 requires approval unless benefits are substantially outweighed by adverse effects, which they are not.
applying Policy S5-5 of the Framework, the benefits of providing homes to meet evidenced accommodation needs (afforded significant weight) and making better use of underutilised land (afforded substantial weight), together with limited economic benefits, were not substantially outweighed by any adverse effects, and the appeal was allowed
