Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the development is inappropriate development in the Green Belt having regard to the Framework and development plan policies
- the effect of the development on the openness of the Green Belt and the purposes of including land in the Green Belt
- the effect of the development on the character of the area
- whether any harm by reason of inappropriateness, and any other harm, is clearly outweighed by other considerations, so as to amount to the very special circumstances required to justify the proposal
What decided it
The substantial harm to the Green Belt by reason of inappropriateness, combined with adverse effects on openness and character, is not clearly outweighed by the economic and connectivity benefits, so very special circumstances do not exist.
