Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

whether the proposal would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt, including the effect on openness
the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
whether adequate information has been provided to demonstrate that the proposal would meet development plan policy requirements in relation to flood risk and climate change
if the proposal is inappropriate development in the Green Belt, 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 necessary to justify it

What decided it

The proposal constitutes disproportionate additions to the original building in the Green Belt, and the harm to the Green Belt and character and appearance of the area is not clearly outweighed by other considerations.
