Tier label used

Main Rural Centre

What the decision says (from the case file)

“Kineton is a Main Rural Centre; site outside the BUAB but within walking distance of services”

Why this is cited

Main Rural Centre plus an asserted walking distance in a one-paragraph cross-check; approved. In the register this counts as a case where the tier was treated as the sustainability finding with no route analysis, the shorthand this piece is about.
