Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the amendments would amount to inappropriate development in the Green Belt having regard to the Framework and any development plan policies
- the effect on the openness of the Green Belt
- 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 modest increase in roof height would not cause substantial harm to the openness of the Green Belt, bringing the proposal within the exception at NPPF paragraph 154(g) for redevelopment of previously developed land.
Framework references: 154
