Site is located in a rural location and does not adjoin the settlement boundary. It is located in the green belt and open in character. Site crossed by a 33kv overhead powerline which would be a health and safety issue. No connection to the main sewer. Two previous applications for use by a gypsy family were refused and dismissed by the planning inspectorate on appeal and there has been no change. The local authority should take into account the following guidance: the need for the site not to dominate the nearest settlement, that sites are inappropriate development in the green belt, national planning guidance which states sites should be suitable for mixed residential and business uses, development of sites in open countryside should be limited.
