Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposed development would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt
- Its effect on the openness of the Green Belt
- Its effect on the living conditions of the occupiers of neighbouring property No 153 Long Line
- If the development would be inappropriate, whether the harm to the Green Belt by way of inappropriateness and any other harm would be clearly outweighed by other considerations so as to amount to the very special circumstances necessary to justify it
What decided it
The proposal constitutes inappropriate development in the Green Belt that would result in disproportionate additions to the original building, and the limited weight afforded to other considerations does not clearly outweigh this substantial harm such that very special circumstances exist to justify it.
