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 any relevant development plan policies
- The effect of the proposal on the openness of the Green Belt
- The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
- Whether the proposal would harm protected species
- 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 required to justify the proposal
What decided it
The proposal would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt causing substantial harm to openness, and this harm was not clearly outweighed by other considerations so as to amount to very special circumstances.
The substantial weight attached to Green Belt harm was not clearly outweighed by other considerations (moderate weight for design quality and limited weight for sustainability measures, economic benefits, permitted development rights and biodiversity net gain) so as to amount to the very special circumstances required to justify the proposal.
