Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt having regard to the National Planning Policy Framework and any relevant development plan policies
- The effect of the proposal on the openness of the Green Belt
- The character and appearance of the area, including Aspley Guise Conservation Area
- Would the harm by reason of inappropriateness, and any other harm, be clearly outweighed by other considerations. If so, would this amount to the very special circumstances required to justify the proposal
What decided it
The proposal constitutes inappropriate development in the Green Belt that is harmful by definition, combined with substantial harm to openness and significant harm to the character and appearance of the conservation area, with no very special circumstances demonstrated to outweigh these harms.
