The proposed scheme does not respect or enhance the character, special qualities and distinctiveness of the locality or the wider designated National Park landscape. If permitted, the development would be visually harmful and detract from the character and appearance of this transitional area between the open countryside and the rural settlement by reason of its domestic appearance and requirement for associated engineered land levelling. As such the proposal is contrary to the provisions of Core Policy A and Development Policy 3 of the NYM Core Strategy and Development Policy Documents which seek to resist the loss of open spaces which contribute to the amenity, character and setting of a settlement.
