Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

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

What decided it

The proposed development would have a greater impact on the openness of the Green Belt than the existing development due to extensive excavation, additional hardstanding, and the introduction of domestic paraphernalia in a currently undeveloped area, and no very special circumstances were demonstrated to outweigh this harm.
