Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposed development would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt, having regard to the Framework and any relevant development plan policies
- the effect of the proposal on the openness of the Green Belt
- whether any harm by reason of inappropriateness, and any other harm, would be clearly outweighed by other considerations, so as to amount to the very special circumstances required to justify the proposal
What decided it
The proposal constitutes inappropriate development in the Green Belt that would harm its openness, and no very special circumstances exist to justify it, as the benefits do not clearly outweigh the identified harms.
the limited benefits of delivering one dwelling and temporary economic benefits were outweighed by the substantial harm to the Green Belt by reason of inappropriateness and the limited harm to its openness
