Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal is inappropriate development in the Green Belt having regard to the Framework and relevant development plan policies
- The effect of the proposal on the openness of the Green Belt
- Would the harm by reason of inappropriateness, and any other harm, be clearly outweighed by other considerations so as to amount to the very special circumstances required to justify the proposal
What decided it
The harm to the Green Belt by reason of inappropriateness and loss of spatial openness was not clearly outweighed by other considerations, meaning very special circumstances did not exist to justify the garage, green house and pond elements.
Framework references: 149, 150
