Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether or not the development is inappropriate development in the Green Belt including its effect on openness and the purposes of the Green Belt
  • the effect of the development on the landscape character of the area
  • whether the land is contaminated and, if so, its effect on human health
  • the effect of the development on biodiversity
  • whether intentional unauthorised development has taken place
  • if the development is inappropriate in the Green Belt, 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 development

What decided it

The development constitutes inappropriate development in the Green Belt causing moderate harm to openness and significant harm to landscape character, with additional risks from contaminated land and unassessed biodiversity impacts, which are not clearly outweighed by other considerations to amount to very special circumstances.
