Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposed development would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt, having regard to the National Planning Policy Framework and any relevant development plan policies, including the impact on openness
  • If the development is inappropriate, whether the harm by reason of inappropriateness, and any other harm, would be clearly outweighed by other considerations so as to amount to the very special circumstances required to justify the proposed development

What decided it

The proposed development would be materially larger than the building it replaces and would cause harm to the openness of the Green Belt, and the limited weight afforded to other considerations does not clearly outweigh this substantial harm.

Framework references: 154

Plan policies cited: GB1, GB3
