Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposal would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt having regard to the Framework and any relevant development plan policies
  • The effect of the proposal on the openness of the Green Belt
  • 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 fallback position of a prior approval rear extension and permitted development outbuilding, which would have similar or greater impact on Green Belt openness, when combined with other considerations, clearly outweighed the harm from inappropriateness and limited harm to openness.
