Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the development is inappropriate development in the Green Belt having regard to the National Planning Policy Framework and any relevant development plan policies and, if so, the effect on the openness of the Green Belt
  • If the development is inappropriate, whether any 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 development is inappropriate in the Green Belt, fails to preserve openness, and no very special circumstances have been demonstrated to justify approval.
