Procedure: Written Representations
Development: residential · Householder developments
Inspector: Sutton A
Postcode: GL51 0TJ

Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

whether the proposal would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt for the purposes of the National Planning Policy Framework and development plan policy
the effect of the proposal on the openness of the Green Belt
whether any 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

What decided it

The proposal would result in disproportionate additions to the original building (150% increase in floor area) and would reduce openness of the Green Belt, and no other considerations clearly outweigh this harm to justify very special circumstances.
