Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposal would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt for the purposes of the Framework and development plan policy
- the impact on the openness of the Green Belt
- the impact on biodiversity, with particular reference to bats, a protected species
- if the development would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt, whether the 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 necessary to justify the development
What decided it
The proposed extensions, when assessed cumulatively with previous extensions, would respect the character of the original semi-detached cottage, retain its visual dominance, and not materially erode the openness of the rural Green Belt area, thereby complying with Policy H14 criteria despite the technical breach of the 30% guideline.
