The tier sentence ¶18

“support for local services and facilities in Rosudgeon”

Summary

Permission in principle for up to five houses on a field at the edge of Rosudgeon, inside the Cornwall and West Devon Mining Landscape World Heritage Site. Dismissed. The site met S5(1)(j) (3.8–3.9-year supply, physically well related), but it is a surviving historic mineworkers' smallholding contributing to the WHS's Outstanding Universal Value. Even minor harm to an asset "of the highest significance", given substantial weight under HE6, meant the moderate benefits were substantially outweighed.
