Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposal would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt
- its effect on the openness of the Green Belt
- if it would be inappropriate development, whether the harm by reason of inappropriateness, and any other harm, is 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 by definition harmful to it, and the limited housing and economic benefits cannot clearly outweigh this harm to amount to very special circumstances.
the harm to the Green Belt by reason of inappropriateness, to which substantial weight should be afforded, was not clearly outweighed by other considerations comprising limited housing supply contribution and moderate economic benefits
