Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the development comprises inappropriate development in the Green Belt having regard to the Framework and the development plan, including its effect on openness
  • The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area
  • The effect of the development on highway safety
  • If the proposal would comprise inappropriate development in the Green Belt, whether any harm by reason of inappropriateness, and any other harm, would be clearly outweighed by other considerations that would amount to the very special circumstances required to justify the proposal

What decided it

The development comprises inappropriate development in the Green Belt that significantly reduces openness and harms character and appearance, and the public benefits do not clearly outweigh this harm to justify very special circumstances.
