Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the development is inappropriate development in the Green Belt having regard to the National Planning Policy Framework and development plan policy
- the effect of the development on the openness of the Green Belt
- the effect of the development on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers with particular regard to noise and disturbance
- if the development is inappropriate, 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 development is inappropriate in the Green Belt, causes harm to openness and neighbouring living conditions, and the appellant has not demonstrated very special circumstances to justify it.
