Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the proposal would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt having regard to the Framework and any relevant development plan policies and the effect on openness
  • the effect of the proposal on the integrity of the Burnham Beeches SAC
  • 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 represents inappropriate development in the Green Belt that would significantly harm openness, and the modest weight afforded to other material considerations does not clearly outweigh this substantial harm.
