| 1. | The proposal is contrary to Policies NNV3, NNV4, NNV5 and NNV7 of the Modified Deposit Version of the Borough-Wide Local Plan in that the development, which would encroach upon agricultural land beyond the confines of the main built-up part of the existing settlement, would have a serious adverse effect on the landscape character of the area, particularly as this locality is designated as being of "Outstanding Natural Beauty". Furthermore, development of a 'domestic' form and style, as proposed, which would extend into open landscape that stretches down to the marshland to the north, would detract from the appearance of the area and could, if permitted, set a precedent for similar proposals elsewhere in this or other areas of landscape importance within the Borough. |
