Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposal would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt as defined by national and local development plan policies
- the effect of the proposal on the openness of the Green Belt
- whether the appeal site is in a suitable location for new residential development, having regard to local spatial policies
- if the development would be inappropriate, whether the harm to the Green Belt by way 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 site's location outside the built-up core of Shurdington village, physically separated from the village centre by woods and fields, meant the proposal was inappropriate development in the Green Belt that could not be justified by very special circumstances.
the harm to the Green Belt by way of inappropriateness and conflict with local location policy was not clearly outweighed by the limited benefits of housing delivery and economic contribution
