Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the development represents appropriate development in the countryside taking into account the effect of the development on the intrinsic character and beauty of the countryside

What decided it

The fallback position that Buildings 1 and 2 would remain on site and be used for lawful Class E purposes (which would generate more vehicle trips) outweighed the policy conflict with countryside development restrictions.
