| 1. | Policy HOU10 of the adopted Great Yarmouth Borough-Wide Local Plan states that permission for new dwellings in the countryside will only be given if required in connection with agriculture, forestry, organised recreation, or the expansion of existing institutions. The proposal is contrary to this policy in that the site is outside the "Village Development Limit" for Ormesby St Michael as defined in the Local Plan. Moreover, no need for the dwelling has been demonstrated to satisfy the criteria of the above policy and there is, therefore, insufficient justification to warrant a departure from national and local policies designed to protect the countryside. |
