Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal is inappropriate development for the purposes of the National Planning Policy Framework and development plan policy
- The effect of the proposed development on the openness of the Green Belt
- If the proposed development is inappropriate, 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 proposed extensions would constitute inappropriate development in the Green Belt representing a disproportionate addition of approximately 90% above the original building's volume, and would harmfully reduce openness, with no other considerations sufficiently outweighing this substantial harm.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy CS5
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 137Paragraph 138Paragraph 147Paragraph 148Paragraph 149
How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
