Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the development is inappropriate development in the Green Belt having regard to the Framework, including the effect on the openness of the Green Belt
  • The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area
  • If the development is found to 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 the very special circumstances necessary to justify the development

What decided it

The development fails to preserve the openness of the Green Belt and very special circumstances do not exist to justify the inappropriate development.
