Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the scheme represents inappropriate development in the Green Belt having regard to the National Planning Policy Framework and development plan policies
- the effect upon openness
- the effect on the character and appearance of the area
- if the development is inappropriate, whether the harm by reason of inappropriateness and any other harm would be clearly outweighed by other considerations so as to amount to the very special circumstances necessary to justify it
What decided it
The benefits of the shed in facilitating the appellant's mobility do not clearly outweigh the substantial harm to the Green Belt's openness and the harm to the character and appearance of the area, and no very special circumstances exist to justify inappropriate development.
The harm by reason of inappropriateness and other harm to the Green Belt and character of the area was not clearly outweighed by the modest benefits of the shed for disability equipment storage.
