Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the development would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt having regard to the Framework and any relevant development plan policies
  • the effect on the openness of the Green Belt
  • the effect on the character and appearance of the area
  • 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 development

What decided it

The development constitutes inappropriate development in the Green Belt with no very special circumstances to justify it, as the building is not for agriculture and causes harm to openness and character that is not outweighed by other considerations.
