Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the condition is necessary to protect the openness of the Green Belt

What decided it

The condition was unnecessary because the Council's own assessment found that building C in reduced form would not harm Green Belt openness regardless of whether building B's conversion was completed, and extensive works already undertaken made completion of the conversion highly likely.
