Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the proposal would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt having regard to the National Planning Policy Framework and relevant development plan policies
  • the effect of the proposal on the openness of the Green Belt
  • the effect of the development on the character and appearance of the building and the surrounding area
  • if the proposal is inappropriate development, whether the harm by reason of inappropriateness, and any other harm, is clearly outweighed by other considerations so as to amount to the very special circumstances necessary to justify the development

What decided it

The proposal constitutes inappropriate development in the Green Belt by reason of disproportionate addition, harms openness and character, and the other considerations do not clearly outweigh these harms to amount to very special circumstances.

Framework references: 149

Plan policies cited: Policy PG3, Policy RUR11, Policy HOU11, Policy SE1, Policy SD2
