The main issue was whether the bridge adversely impacts the countryside designated as High Landscape or Coastal Value and Scenic Significance.
Environment Policy 1
Protects countryside outside settlements for its own sake; development not permitted unless overriding national need and no alternative. Officer assessed the bridge causes no harm to countryside character, so complies.
Environment Policy 2
Protects character of Areas of High Landscape or Coastal Value unless no harm or essential location. Timber bridge visible briefly and screened by landscaping, so 'does not harm the character and quality of the landscape'.
General Policy 3
Restricts development outside zoned areas except specific cases like essential agriculture/services or minor works. Bridge accepted as ancillary engineering operation supporting existing garage use (oil access), fitting exceptions without landscape harm.
