Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the development comprises inappropriate development in the Green Belt having regard to the National Planning Policy Framework and any relevant development plan policies
- 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 required to justify the proposal
What decided it
The development causes spatial and visual harm to Green Belt openness and conflicts with Green Belt purposes through encroachment of non-agricultural uses, and this substantial harm is not clearly outweighed by other considerations sufficient to demonstrate very special circumstances.
Framework references: 88, 155
