Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the proposal is inappropriate development for the purposes of the Framework and any other relevant development plan policies
  • the effect on the openness of the Green Belt
  • the effect on the character and appearance of the area
  • if the 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 proposal constitutes inappropriate development in the Green Belt that does not fall within the exceptions in NPPF paragraph 154, and the limited benefits do not clearly outweigh the substantial harm from inappropriateness combined with moderate harm to character and appearance.

Framework references: 154

Plan policies cited: Policy 57 of the Core Strategy, Policy 51 of the Core Strategy
