Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

Whether the proposal 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 proposal on the openness of the Green Belt
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 proposal

What decided it

The proposal would cause harm to the Green Belt by reason of inappropriateness and to its openness, and the limited benefits arising from the proposal do not clearly outweigh this harm such that very special circumstances exist to justify the development.
