Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether erection of the fencing amounts to inappropriate development, having regard to the National Planning Policy Framework and the Development Plan
  • The effect on Green Belt openness
  • Whether the landscape and scenic beauty of the AONB is conserved
  • Whether the harm by reason of inappropriateness, and any other harm, would be clearly outweighed by other considerations so as to amount to the very special circumstances required to justify granting permission for the fencing

What decided it

The fencing constitutes inappropriate development in the Green Belt that harms openness and fails to conserve the AONB's landscape and scenic beauty, with no very special circumstances to justify permission.
