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
- The effect of the proposal on the openness of the Green Belt
- The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the host dwelling and surrounding area, having regard to whether the proposal would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Hainworth Conservation 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 proposal
What decided it
The appellant failed to demonstrate very special circumstances that would clearly outweigh the identified harm to the Green Belt by reason of inappropriateness and the harm to the character and appearance of the conservation area.
