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.
