Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposal would be inappropriate in the Green Belt having regard to the National Planning Policy Framework and any relevant development plan policies
- the effect 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 necessary to justify the proposal
What decided it
The cumulative extensions would constitute disproportionate additions over and above the size of the original building, causing harm to the Green Belt that was not clearly outweighed by other considerations.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- GB1GB10
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 142Paragraph 153Paragraph 154
