- Inspector
- Naylor R
Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposed covered manège would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt having regard to the Framework and any relevant development plan policies and the effect on openness
- The effect of the proposed covered manège on the character and appearance of the Chilterns AONB
- Whether any harm by reason of inappropriateness, and any other harm, is clearly outweighed by other considerations so as to amount to the very special circumstances to justify it
What decided it
The substantial harm to Green Belt openness by reason of inappropriateness was not clearly outweighed by other considerations, so very special circumstances did not exist to justify the covered manège.
