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 any relevant development plan policies
  • The effect of the proposal on the openness of the Green Belt
  • The effect of the proposal on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers
  • The effect of the proposal on nearby designated and non-designated heritage assets
  • 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 would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt causing harm to openness and would detrimentally affect the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers through noise, and these harms were not clearly outweighed by other considerations to constitute very special circumstances.
