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 and relevant development plan policies
- the effect of the proposal on the openness of the Green Belt
- the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the building and surrounding area
- if the proposal 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 harm to the Green Belt by reason of inappropriateness and loss of openness, to which substantial weight must be given, was not clearly outweighed by other considerations, and very special circumstances were not demonstrated.
