Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal constitutes inappropriate development in the Green Belt for the purposes of the Framework and development plan policies, and the effect it would have 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 proposal constitutes inappropriate development in the Green Belt that would cause harm to openness, and the appellants have failed to demonstrate very special circumstances that would clearly outweigh this harm.
