Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt
What decided it
The proposed dormer replacement would result in only a very small volumetric increase (1%) that would not cumulatively constitute a disproportionate addition over and above the original building, and would have no impact on Green Belt openness.

- Development plan policies
- Policy GB1
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 154
