Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposal would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt having regard to the development plan and the National Planning Policy Framework, including the effect upon the openness of the Green Belt
  • Whether any harm by reason of inappropriateness, and any other harm, would be clearly outweighed by other considerations, so as to amount to the very special circumstances required to justify the proposal

What decided it

The domestication of the land and urbanising effect resulting from residential use would have a greater impact on the openness of the Green Belt than the existing stables, and this substantial harm was not clearly outweighed by other considerations.
