Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the appeal scheme would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt
- The effect of the appeal scheme on the openness of the Green Belt
- If the appeal scheme would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt, 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 necessary to justify it
What decided it
The appeal scheme would cause substantial and unavoidable harm to the Green Belt through inappropriateness and reduction in openness, and the other considerations identified could not clearly outweigh this harm to demonstrate very special circumstances.
