Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the condition is reasonable or necessary in the interests of preserving the openness of the Green Belt, protecting the character and appearance of the area, and the amount of amenity space for occupiers of the dwelling

What decided it

The absence of clear, site-specific justification for removing permitted development rights, as the Green Belt location alone is insufficient and the GPDO's own limitations would adequately control any future development.

What the Inspector cited

Development plan policies
Policy SS10
National Planning Policy Framework
Paragraph 142Paragraph 54

How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
