Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposal would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt, having regard to the National Planning Policy Framework and any relevant development plan policies
  • The effect of the proposal on the openness of the Green Belt
  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the 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 required to justify the proposal

What decided it

The proposal comprises inappropriate development in the Green Belt on non-previously developed land that would significantly harm openness and character, with insufficient other considerations to constitute very special circumstances.
