Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the breach of planning control constitutes inappropriate development in the Green Belt
  • The effect of the breach of planning control on the living conditions of the occupiers of neighbouring properties by reason of vehicular movements and comings and goings
  • If the breach of planning control 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 very special circumstances

What decided it

The development constitutes inappropriate development in the Green Belt causing substantial harm to openness, combined with material harm to neighbouring living conditions through increased vehicular movements, which is not clearly outweighed by other considerations to justify very special circumstances.
