Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the appeal site is grey belt land and whether the development would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt having regard to the National Planning Policy Framework and any relevant development plan policies
  • whether the site is suitable for residential development having regard to its location, the proposed land use and the amount of development

What decided it

The site qualifies as grey belt land satisfying all three criteria in Framework paragraph 155, making the development appropriate and according with the development plan.
