Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the development would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt having regard to the National Planning Policy Framework and any relevant development plan Policies
  • whether the appeal site is an appropriate location for the development having regard to development plan policies
  • 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 constitutes inappropriate development in the Green Belt that would result in a harmful loss of openness, and this harm is not clearly outweighed by other considerations to justify very special circumstances.
