Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposal would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt for the purposes of the Framework and development plan policy
- the effect of the proposal on the openness of the Green Belt
- if the proposal would be inappropriate development, whether the harm by reason of inappropriateness and any other harm, is clearly outweighed by other considerations, so as to amount to the very special circumstances necessary to justify it
What decided it
The harm to the Green Belt by reason of inappropriateness and loss of openness, to which substantial weight was given, was not clearly outweighed by other considerations.
The substantial harm to the Green Belt by reason of inappropriateness and loss of openness was not clearly outweighed by other considerations, so very special circumstances do not exist.
