Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposed extension 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 area, including the Chilterns Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB)
- If the proposal would be inappropriate development, whether the harm by reason of inappropriateness, and any other harm, is clearly outweighed by other considerations, so as to amount to very special circumstances to justify it
What decided it
The cumulative effect of the proposed extensions, combined with previous additions, would constitute disproportionate additions to the original dwelling that would harm the Green Belt's openness and the character and appearance of the AONB, with no very special circumstances to justify the inappropriate development.
