Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the store is inappropriate development in the Green Belt
- the effect of the store on the openness and purposes of the Green Belt
- whether other considerations clearly outweigh the harm to the Green Belt so as to amount to very special circumstances required to justify the store
What decided it
The store is inappropriate development in the Green Belt with no very special circumstances to justify it, as the appellant failed to demonstrate productive agricultural use, the land was not previously developed, and the private benefits of machinery storage do not clearly outweigh the moderate harm to Green Belt openness.
