Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the development is inappropriate development in the Green Belt having regard to the National Planning Policy Framework and development plan policy.
- The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area.
- If the development is inappropriate, 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 necessary to justify the development.
What decided it
The other considerations raised (security, ecology, human rights) did not clearly outweigh the harm to the Green Belt by reason of inappropriateness and to openness, so very special circumstances did not exist.
the harm to the Green Belt by reason of inappropriateness and to openness was not clearly outweighed by the other considerations (security, ecology, human rights), so very special circumstances did not exist and the appeal on ground (a) failed
