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
  • The effect of the proposal on the openness of the Green Belt
  • If the proposed development is inappropriate development, whether the harm by reason of inappropriateness, and any other harm, is clearly outweighed by other considerations so as to amount to the very special circumstances required to justify the proposed development

What decided it

The cumulative scale of extensions (88% increase) constitutes disproportionate additions to the original building, making the proposal inappropriate development in the Green Belt with no very special circumstances to justify it.

What the Inspector cited

Development plan policies
Policy EE14
