Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposed development constitutes inappropriate development in the Green Belt
  • The effect of the proposed development on openness
  • Whether the proposed development would be in a suitable location, having regard to the relevant policies of the development plan which seek to manage the location of new development and access to services
  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area and Waterworks Cottage
  • Highway safety
  • Whether the harm by reason of inappropriateness, and any other harm, would be clearly outweighed by other considerations. If so, whether these would amount to the very special circumstances necessary to justify the proposal

What decided it

The proposal represents inappropriate development causing substantial harm to Green Belt openness and purposes, and very special circumstances do not exist to justify approval.
