Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt having regard to the National Planning Policy Framework (2021) and any relevant development plan policies
- Whether the appeal scheme's location would minimise the need for occupants of the development to travel
- The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area with particular regard to the effect on the Chilterns Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB)
- Whether any 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 required to justify the proposal
What decided it
The proposal constitutes inappropriate development in the Green Belt under the development plan policy, and the identified harms are not clearly outweighed by other considerations so as to amount to very special circumstances.
