Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the proposed development as amended would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt having regard to the revised Framework and any relevant development plan policies
  • the effect of the proposed development as amended on the openness of the Green Belt
  • the effect of the proposed development as amended on the character and appearance of the existing building and surrounding area
  • whether the harm from the proposed development as amended 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 appeal

What decided it

The proposal would constitute inappropriate development in the Green Belt as the first floor extension combined with existing extensions would amount to disproportionate additions over and above the size of the original building, and the resulting harm to the Green Belt could not be clearly outweighed by other considerations to demonstrate very special circumstances.

Framework references: 149

Plan policies cited: Policy DS18, Policy BE1, Policy BE4, Policy H14
