Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

Whether the proposal would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt for the purposes of development plan policy and the Framework

What decided it

The proposed extension would not result in a disproportionate addition to the original building when assessed by floorspace, volume and design subservience, and therefore meets the exception in paragraph 149 of the Framework for extensions to buildings in the Green Belt.

Framework references: 149

Plan policies cited: Spatial Policy 4B of the Amended Core Strategy (March 2019), Chapter 10 of the Householder Development Supplementary Planning Document (November 2014)

- Landscape and environment. Green belt, national parks and national landscapes, SSSIs, ancient woodland, SPA, SAC and Ramsar sites, nutrient catchments.
- Flooding. Flood zones 2 and 3, surface water, and both again with climate change.
- Transport. The 800 metre station catchment and service frequency, bus stops with their weekday frequency, the cycle network, and the Framework’s transport tests measured for the site.
