Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposal represents an inappropriate development in the Green Belt and the effect of the development upon the openness of the Green Belt
- if the development is inappropriate, whether the harm by reason of inappropriateness, and any other harm, is clearly outweighed by other considerations, so as to amount to the very special circumstances necessary to justify the development
What decided it
The proposal would cause inappropriate development and substantial harm to Green Belt openness and character, which is not clearly outweighed by the limited to moderate weight of other considerations.

- Development plan policies
- Policy SP4Policy SP7Policy HQ1Policy EMP4
