Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the development is inappropriate development in the Green Belt, including whether there is a demonstrated operational need for it, having regard to the National Planning Policy Framework and any development plan policies
  • the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area

What decided it

The absence of demonstrated operational need for the agricultural building, evidenced by lack of livestock commitments, business case, and animal health agency registration, combined with the harmful visual impact of the building's height on the character and appearance of the area.

Framework references: 154

Plan policies cited: Policy STRAT9, Policy DM6, Policy ENV2, Policy DM3, Policy ENV3
