Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

whether the proposal would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt having regard to the National Planning Policy Framework and relevant development plan policies
the effect on the openness of the Green Belt
the effect on the character and appearance of the area
if found to be inappropriate development, 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 to justify the development

What decided it

The proposal constitutes inappropriate development in the Green Belt that results in disproportionate additions to the original building and harmful loss of openness, and the other considerations advanced do not clearly outweigh this harm to justify very special circumstances.
