Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the proposal would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt
  • the suitability of the design of the proposed dwellings
  • whether the harm by reason of inappropriateness, and any other harm, would be clearly outweighed by other considerations (and if so, whether this would amount to the very special circumstances required to justify the proposal)

What decided it

The substantial harm to the Green Belt by reason of inappropriateness was not clearly outweighed by the limited material considerations in support of the proposal, and very special circumstances did not exist.

The substantial harm to the Green Belt by reason of inappropriateness was not clearly outweighed by the limited housing contribution and economic benefits of the proposal.
