Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt having regard to the National Planning Policy Framework and relevant development plan policies including the effect of the proposal on the openness and purposes of the Green Belt
- The effect of the proposed development on protected species
- Whether other considerations clearly outweigh the harm to the Green Belt and any other harm so as to amount to very special circumstances
What decided it
The absence of an existing building to replace means the proposal cannot satisfy the replacement building exception in paragraph 154(d) of the Framework and Policy DM14, and the harm to Green Belt openness is not clearly outweighed by other considerations to justify very special circumstances.
