Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt having regard to the National Planning Policy Framework and any relevant development plan policies
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
- If the development is inappropriate, 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 the development
What decided it
The proposal would result in greater impact on the openness of the Green Belt in both spatial and visual terms, and would harm character and appearance, with no very special circumstances to justify the inappropriate development.
The substantial weight given to harm to the Green Belt and the harm to character and appearance were not outweighed by other considerations, including minimal economic benefits and the absence of additional housing supply.
