Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposed extensions would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt having regard to the National Planning Policy Framework and any relevant development plan policies
- the effect on the openness of the Green Belt
- the effect on the character and appearance of the area, with particular regard to the Arden Special Landscape Area (ASLA)
- if the proposal would be inappropriate development, whether the harm by reason of inappropriateness, and any other harm, is clearly outweighed by other considerations, so as to amount to very special circumstances to justify it
What decided it
The cumulative effect of the proposed extensions, combined with previous additions, would result in disproportionate additions exceeding half the original building's size, constituting inappropriate Green Belt development that cannot be justified by very special circumstances.
