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
  • 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 scale of the building would unduly affect the spatial openness of the Green Belt and would not preserve openness as required for an appropriate facility exception, constituting inappropriate development for which no very special circumstances exist.

The harm to the Green Belt by reason of inappropriateness and loss of openness was not clearly outweighed by the considerations presented by the appellant, and very special circumstances do not exist to justify the development.
