Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the appeal schemes are inappropriate development in the green belt having regard to the revised framework and relevant development plan policies
  • The effect of the appeal schemes on the openness of the Green Belt
  • Whether the appeal site is a suitable location for a dwelling having regard to access to shops, services
  • Whether the harm by reason of inappropriateness, and any other harm, is clearly outweighed by other considerations so as to amount to the very special circumstances required to justify the appeal schemes

What decided it

The harm to the Green Belt by reason of inappropriateness and unsuitability of location for a dwelling, combined with lack of safe pedestrian access to services, is not clearly outweighed by other considerations, and very special circumstances do not exist.
