Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether condition 2 on planning permission P/1404/18 dated 3 August 2018 remains reasonable and necessary having regard to the reason for imposing the condition
  • Whether or not the development is inappropriate development in the Green Belt
  • The effect on the openness and purposes of the Green Belt
  • The effect on the character and appearance of the area
  • Whether the harm to the Green Belt by reason of inappropriateness, and any other harm, is clearly outweighed by other considerations so as to amount to the very special circumstances required to justify the development

What decided it

The development amounts to inappropriate development in the Green Belt causing substantial harm to openness and moderate harm to character and appearance, which is not clearly outweighed by other considerations, and therefore very special circumstances do not exist to justify the development.
