Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the appeal scheme is inappropriate development in the Green Belt having regard to the National Planning Policy Framework and any relevant development plan policies

What decided it

The proposal would not result in disproportionate additions over and above the size of the original building, either within the 50% SPD guideline or when assessed in the context of the building as a whole, and therefore constitutes an appropriate exception to Green Belt policy.

What the Inspector cited

Development plan policies
Policy D23
National Planning Policy Framework
Paragraph 137Paragraph 149

How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
