Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the development would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt, having regard to the NPPF and any relevant development plan policies, including the effect upon the openness of the Green Belt
- if the development is 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 the development
What decided it
The proposed replacement dwelling would be materially larger than the building it replaces and would have a greater impact on the openness of the Green Belt, constituting inappropriate development that is not justified by very special circumstances.
