Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposal would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt, having regard to the National Planning Policy Framework 2021 and any relevant development plan policies
  • The effect of the proposal on the openness of the Green Belt
  • Whether the proposal would preserve the Grade II listed building known as Shay Farm Cottage, or any features of special architectural or historic interest which it possesses
  • 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 proposal would constitute inappropriate development in the Green Belt causing disproportionate additions to the original building, would harm the openness of the Green Belt, would cause less than substantial but considerable harm to the significance of the Grade II listed building, and the other considerations did not clearly outweigh these harms to establish very special circumstances.
