Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposal would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt having regard to the Framework and any relevant development plan policies
  • The effect on the openness of the Green Belt and purposes of including land within it
  • The effect of the proposed development on highway safety with regard to vehicle movements on site
  • If the proposed development constitutes inappropriate development in the Green Belt, whether any 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 proposal

What decided it

The essential need for a farm manager's dwelling to live on site for the proper functioning of the poultry business, supported by independent specialist assessment and the Council's findings, clearly outweighs the harm to Green Belt openness and constitutes very special circumstances.
