Environment Policy 15
Requires agricultural need sufficient to outweigh countryside restraint, with acceptable impacts sited near building groups, appropriate scale/design sympathetic to landscape. Officer found DEFA-confirmed need outweighed policy; though isolated (not near groups), scale/form acceptable, visual impact low due to below-road siting/hedge screening. No unacceptable residential impact.
