Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the proposal would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt having regard to the Framework and any relevant development plan policies
  • the effect on the openness of the Green Belt
  • would the harm by reason of inappropriateness, and any other harm, be clearly outweighed by other considerations so as to amount to the very special circumstances required to justify the proposal

What decided it

The proposed building would constitute inappropriate development in the Green Belt with harm to openness that was not clearly outweighed by other considerations, and very special circumstances did not exist to justify the development.

The harm to the Green Belt by reason of inappropriateness and harm to openness was not clearly outweighed by the other considerations advanced by the appellant.
