What decided it
The proposed stable block qualifies as an appropriate facility for outdoor sport and recreation under the Green Belt exception in paragraph 154(b) of the Framework, and its modest scale and design would preserve the openness of the Green Belt and not harm the character and appearance of the surrounding area.
