Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the condition restricting the occupation of the dwellinghouse to a person solely, or mainly working at the establishment known as Daisy Nook and Oakhill Riding School and to any resident dependants is necessary and reasonable having regard to local planning policy relating to the Green Belt
What decided it
The continued existence of an active equine husbandry and welfare use at the site meant very special circumstances still existed to justify the dwelling, so the condition was varied rather than removed.
the ongoing very special circumstances of equine husbandry and welfare at the site continued to justify the inappropriate development in the Green Belt, so the condition was varied (not removed) to preserve that link and the appeal was allowed
