Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt having regard to the Framework and any relevant development plan policies including, where appropriate, its effect on openness
- The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
- Whether the proposal would provide adequate living conditions for future occupiers, with particular regard to the provision of private amenity space
- If the development is inappropriate, 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 constitutes inappropriate development in the Green Belt that would harm openness and conflict with the purposes of Green Belt designation, and the modest benefits do not amount to very special circumstances to justify the development.
