Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

Whether the development would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt having regard to the Framework and any relevant development plan policies
The effect of the development on the openness of the Green Belt

What decided it

The proposed garage would be materially larger than the existing building it replaces, making it inappropriate development in the Green Belt that cannot be justified by the other considerations advanced.
