Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposed development would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt having regard to the Framework and any relevant development plan policies
  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
  • The effect of the proposed development on highway safety
  • 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 proposal represents inappropriate development in the Green Belt that would harm openness, and the limited benefits do not constitute very special circumstances to justify this substantial harm.
