Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposed development would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt having regard to the National Planning Policy Framework and any relevant development plan policies
- if the development is inappropriate, whether the 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 proposed extension would not result in a disproportionate addition to the original building as it would be visually subservient and integrate well with the existing dwelling, falling within the exception in NPPF paragraph 149(c).
Framework references: 149, 150
