The proposed development of the erection of 36 dwellings and associated landscape and highway works has been dismissed because the appeal site is allocated for the development of approximately 15 dwellingsin the West Berkshire Council Housing Site Allocations Development PlanDocument (HSA DPD), which was adopted in 2017. It is common ground that the development plan is up to date, that the Council can demonstrate a five year supply of land for housing as required by the National Planning Policy Framework (the Framework), that the site lies in a valued landscape in terms of paragraph 170 of the Framework and that the ‘tilted balance’ set out in paragraph 11(d) of the Framework is not engaged. I have no reason to take a different view on these matters.
