Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposed development 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 proposed development on the character and appearance of the dwelling and wider area
What decided it
The very small additional floor area of 3.1m² would be difficult to detect within the context of the reconfiguration and would not tip over into being disproportionate to the size of the original building, thereby satisfying the exception in NPPF paragraph 154(c) for extensions in the Green Belt.
