Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal would constitute inappropriate development in the Green Belt
- The effect on the amenity value of trees

- The effect on flood risk in particular with regard to the application of the sequential test
- The effect on the living conditions of occupiers of neighbouring properties, in particular Boundary House by way of privacy
What decided it
The proposal failed the sequential test for flood risk and would cause unacceptable harm to the amenity value of trees and the living conditions of future occupiers, with benefits insufficient to outweigh this harm.
