Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt having regard to relevant development plan policies, the provisions of the Framework and the effect on the openness of the Green Belt
- The effect on the character and appearance of the area
- If the proposal is inappropriate development, 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 development
What decided it
The proposal constitutes redevelopment of previously developed land that would not cause substantial harm to the openness of the Green Belt, falling within the exception at paragraph 154(g) of the Framework and therefore not amounting to inappropriate development.
