Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the development is inappropriate development for the purposes of the development plan and the Framework
- the effect of the proposal on the openness of the Green Belt
- if the development is 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 it
What decided it
The outbuilding is inappropriate development in the Green Belt that harms openness, and the appellant has not demonstrated very special circumstances that would clearly outweigh this substantial harm.
