Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether or not the proposed development would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt and the effect of the proposed development upon the openness of the Green Belt
  • the effect of the proposed development upon the character and appearance of the host dwelling and the area
  • if the proposed development is inappropriate development, whether the harm by reason of inappropriateness, and any other harm, is clearly outweighed by other considerations and whether this would amount to the very special circumstances required to justify the proposal

What decided it

The substantial harm to the openness of the Green Belt from a disproportionate addition to the original building was not clearly outweighed by the moderate weight of other considerations, so very special circumstances were not established.
