Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether or not 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 of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area, with reference to the setting of Wick Court
- if there is harm by reason of inappropriateness, and any other harm, would it be clearly outweighed by other considerations, and if so would this amount to the very special circumstances required to justify the proposal
What decided it
The proposal would cause less than substantial harm to the setting of the Grade I listed building Wick Court and inappropriate harm to Green Belt openness, which is not clearly outweighed by the modest public benefits of improved highway safety and horse welfare.
