Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt
- The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
- If found to be inappropriate development, whether the harm by reason of inappropriateness, and any other harm, is clearly outweighed by other considerations and if so, whether this amounts to the very special circumstances required to justify the proposal
What decided it
The proposal would constitute inappropriate development in the Green Belt that would harm openness and conflict with Green Belt purposes, and would cause substantial harm to character and appearance, with insufficient countervailing considerations to justify approval.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy EQ 4Policy EQ 2Policy EQ 3Policy EQ 6
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 133Paragraph 138Paragraph 150
