Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether or not the appeal proposal is inappropriate development in the Green Belt having regard to the National Planning Policy Framework and any relevant development plan policies
- The effect of the appeal proposal on the openness of the Green Belt
- Whether or not there is any other harm that will result
- Whether or not any other considerations exist and the weight that should be afforded to them
- If the appeal proposal is inappropriate development, whether any identified harm to the Green Belt by reason of inappropriateness, and any other harm, is clearly outweighed by other considerations, to amount to the very special circumstances necessary to justify the proposal
What decided it
The identified harm to the Green Belt by reason of inappropriateness and considerable loss of openness is not clearly outweighed by the other considerations advanced, and therefore very special circumstances do not exist to justify the proposal.
