Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposal would be inappropriate development within the Green Belt
  • The effect of the proposal on the openness of the Green Belt
  • If the appeal proposal is inappropriate development, 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 required to justify the proposal
  • The impact of the proposal on the character and appearance of the local area
  • Whether or not a financial contribution towards off-site sport and play facilities is required

What decided it

The proposal amounts to inappropriate development within the Green Belt that would harm its openness and the rural character of the area, and no very special circumstances exist to justify it.
