Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether or not the proposal would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt
- The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
- If the proposal would be inappropriate development, whether or not the 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 necessary to justify it
What decided it
The proposed stable block would result in substantial harm to the openness of the Green Belt through its disproportionate scale, particularly the extensive ancillary facilities, which cannot be justified as appropriate facilities for outdoor sport and recreation, and the limited other considerations do not clearly outweigh this harm.
