Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the proposal would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt for the purposes of the development plan and the National Planning Policy Framework (2021)
  • the effect of the proposal on the openness of the Green Belt
  • the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the host dwelling
  • 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 the very special circumstances necessary to justify it

What decided it

The cumulative volume increase of 90% resulting from the proposal combined with previous extensions far exceeds the 25-30% threshold in Policy S4, constituting disproportionate additions to the original building that cannot be justified by the other considerations advanced.

Framework references: 147, 148, 149

Plan policies cited: Policy S4, Policy SD1, Policy BE2
