Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the proposal would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt having regard to the Framework and any relevant development plan policies
  • the effect of the development on the openness of the Green Belt
  • the effect of the development on the character and appearance of the surrounding area
  • 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 necessary to justify the proposal

What decided it

The proposal would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt resulting in a moderate loss of openness, and this harm was not clearly outweighed by other considerations, so very special circumstances did not exist.

Framework references: 48, 149, 150

Plan policies cited: GB1, GB4, H7
