Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal is inappropriate development for the purposes of the Framework and development plan policy
- The effect on the openness of the Green Belt
- If the development is inappropriate, whether the harm by reason of inappropriateness, and any other harm, is clearly outweighed by the other considerations, so as to amount to the very special circumstances necessary to justify the development
What decided it
The disproportionate 62% increase in floor area compared to the original dwelling and the resulting moderate harm to Green Belt openness from the substantial two-storey rear extension could not be justified by the other considerations advanced.
