Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal would constitute inappropriate development in the Green Belt
- If the proposal would be inappropriate, whether the 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 necessary to justify it
What decided it
The proposal would result in disproportionate additions to the original building in terms of footprint, floorspace and introduction of two-storey extension, thereby reducing the openness of the Green Belt, and the other considerations put forward did not clearly outweigh this substantial harm.
