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 108% increase in floorspace and the disproportionate addition to the size of the original building, combined with harm to Green Belt openness, are not clearly outweighed by other considerations so as to constitute very special circumstances.

What the Inspector cited

Development plan policies: Policy 3 of the Greater Nottingham Aligned Core Strategies Part 1 Local PlanPolicy LPD13 of the Gedling Borough Local Planning Document Part 2 Local Plan
National Planning Policy Framework: Paragraph 149Paragraph 148Paragraph 138
