Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the development on the openness of the Green Belt
  • the effect of the development on the character and appearance of the appeal site and its surroundings
  • whether the appeal site is a suitable location for the development, having regard to local and national planning policy
  • 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 development amounts to inappropriate development in the Green Belt causing moderate harm to openness and harm to character and appearance, located in an unsuitable location outside settlement boundaries, with other considerations failing to clearly outweigh these harms and establish very special circumstances.
