Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposed development would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt for the purposes of the NPPF and development plan policy and the effect on openness
- The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the appeal dwelling and the surrounding area
- The effect of the proposal on the living conditions of the neighbouring occupiers at No. 2 The Chantries with particular regard to the effect on outlook
- If the development would be inappropriate, whether the harm to the Green Belt by way of inappropriateness and any other harm, would be clearly outweighed by other considerations so as to amount to the very special circumstances necessary to justify it
What decided it
The proposed fencing would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt causing moderate harm to openness and the rural character of the site, with no very special circumstances to justify it.
