Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposal constitutes inappropriate development in the Green Belt for the purposes of the National Planning Policy Framework and Development Plan Policy
- the effect of the proposal on the openness of the Green Belt
- the effect of the proposal on highway safety
- the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
- if found to be inappropriate development, whether the harm by reason of inappropriateness, and any other harm, is clearly outweighed by other considerations so as to amount to the very special circumstances necessary to justify the development
What decided it
The proposal constitutes inappropriate development in the Green Belt causing substantial harm to its openness and moderate harm to character and appearance, with no very special circumstances demonstrated to justify approval.
