Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposal would be inappropriate development for the purposes of development plan policy and the National Planning Policy Framework
- the effect of the proposal on the openness of the Green Belt
- if the proposal would be inappropriate development, 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 it
What decided it
The cumulative effect of the proposed extension with existing extensions would constitute a disproportionate addition to the original building, causing harm to the Green Belt by inappropriateness and loss of openness, which was not clearly outweighed by other considerations.
