Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposal would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt having regard to the National Planning Policy Framework and any relevant development plan policies
- the effect of the proposal on the purposes of the Green Belt including openness and whether it would assist in safeguarding the countryside from encroachment
- the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the countryside
- whether any harm by reason of inappropriateness, and any other harm, would be clearly outweighed by any 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 countryside character, and the limited benefits of a single dwelling do not clearly outweigh this substantial harm to justify very special circumstances.
