Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt having regard to the National Planning Policy Framework and any relevant development plan policies
- The effect on the openness of the Green Belt
- The effect on the character and appearance of the host dwelling and the area
- Would the harm by reason of inappropriateness, and any other harm, be clearly outweighed by other considerations. If so, would this amount to the very special circumstances required to justify the proposal
What decided it
The development is inappropriate development in the Green Belt causing harm to openness and significant harm to character and appearance, and the other considerations do not clearly outweigh these harms to justify very special circumstances.
