Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposal would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt having regard to the revised National Planning Policy Framework and relevant development plan policies
- the effect on the openness of the Green Belt
- would the harm by reason of inappropriateness and any other harm, be clearly outweighed by other considerations so as to amount to the very special circumstances required to justify the proposal
What decided it
The cumulative effect of the proposed extension with previous extensions would result in disproportionate additions to the original building, constituting inappropriate development in the Green Belt with no very special circumstances to justify it.
