Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • if the proposal would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt
  • the effect of the proposal on the special architectural and historic interest of the Grade II listed building 'The Barn at Belladale, Mountnessing Road', with regard to its setting

What decided it

The harm to the Green Belt by reason of inappropriateness and encroachment into the countryside is not clearly outweighed by other considerations, and very special circumstances do not exist to justify the development.
