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 any relevant development plan policies
- the effect of the proposal on the openness of the Green Belt
- whether the appeal site is a suitable location for the proposal, having regard to local planning policies and the accessibility of services and facilities
- 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 required to justify the proposal
What decided it
The proposal would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt that is harmful by definition, and the harm to the Green Belt and unsuitability of location would not be clearly outweighed by other considerations to amount to very special circumstances.
