Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the development is inappropriate development
  • The effect on the openness and the character and appearance of the Green Belt
  • If it is not inappropriate, whether the harm by reason of inappropriateness and any other harm is clearly outweighed by the very special circumstances required to justify the proposal

What decided it

The outbuildings constitute inappropriate development in the Green Belt with no very special circumstances to justify them, and the games room causes additional harm to character and appearance.

The harm by reason of inappropriateness (given substantial weight) and additional harm to character and appearance were not outweighed by any other considerations; very special circumstances do not exist.
