Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the openness of the Green Belt and the purposes of including land within it
  • would any harm by reason of inappropriateness, and any other harm, be clearly outweighed by other considerations so as to amount to the very special circumstances required to justify the proposal

What decided it

The other considerations advanced by the appellant did not clearly outweigh the substantial harm to the Green Belt and the other harm from the isolated location, so very special circumstances were not demonstrated.

the substantial harm to the Green Belt and the other harm from the isolated location were not clearly outweighed by the other considerations, which were afforded limited, very limited or no weight, so very special circumstances did not exist and the balance tipped against the proposal
