Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the development would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt having regard to any relevant development plan policies and the Framework
  • 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 area, and whether it would conserve and enhance the landscape and scenic beauty of the Chilterns AONB
  • Whether the harm by reason of inappropriateness, and any other harm, would be clearly outweighed by other considerations so as to amount to very special circumstances required to justify the development

What decided it

The proposal constitutes inappropriate development in the Green Belt causing harm to openness, and the modest benefits do not clearly outweigh this harm to amount to very special circumstances.
