Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the location of the proposed development would be acceptable, in particular whether the proposal would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt
- If inappropriate, whether the resulting harm 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 appeal site is not located within a village as defined by the development plan and case law, and therefore the proposal constitutes inappropriate development in the Green Belt that cannot be justified by the minor benefits offered.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy PG3Policy PG10
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 154Paragraph 153Paragraph 128
How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
