Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt
- The effect of the proposal on the openness of the Green Belt
- If the proposal is inappropriate, 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 be materially larger than the building it replaces and would unacceptably reduce the openness of the Green Belt, with no other considerations of sufficient weight to constitute very special circumstances.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy CP8 of the Bath and North East Somerset Core Strategy (2014)
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 137Paragraph 147Paragraph 149Paragraph 150
How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
