Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the proposal would be inappropriate development within the Green Belt for the purposes of the Framework and the relevant development plan policy
  • the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the locality with particular regard to the Ancient Arden landscape character
  • the effects on the ecological value of the site
  • whether or not the location provides a suitable location for new housing
  • if the development is inappropriate, 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 the development

What decided it

The site presents as part of the characteristic linear distribution of built development in the locality and constitutes limited infilling within a village for the purposes of Framework paragraph 149(e), thereby not requiring very special circumstances to justify the development.
