Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposed development would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt having regard to the development plan and the Framework, including the effect upon the openness of the Green Belt
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
- the effect of the proposed development on ecology with particular regard to protected species and habitats
- if the proposed development is inappropriate, whether the harm, by reason of inappropriateness, and any other harm, is clearly outweighed by other considerations, so as to amount to the very special circumstances necessary to justify the development
What decided it
The proposed development constitutes inappropriate development in the Green Belt that would cause substantial harm to openness and character, with insufficient ecological evidence, and the harm is not clearly outweighed by other considerations.
