Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the openness of the Green Belt
  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
  • Whether the harm by reason of inappropriateness, and any other harm, would be clearly outweighed by other considerations and if so, whether this would amount to the very special circumstances required to justify the proposal

What decided it

The harm to the Green Belt by reason of inappropriateness and loss of openness, which attracts substantial weight, was not clearly outweighed by the socio-economic benefits of the proposal.
