Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the development would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt for the purposes of the National Planning Policy Framework July 2021 and development plan policy
- If the development 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 proposed development would cause substantial harm to the Green Belt by reason of inappropriateness and reduction in openness, and the private benefits to the appellant could not clearly outweigh this harm to constitute very special circumstances.
