Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposal would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt
  • Its effect on the openness of the Green Belt
  • If the scheme is inappropriate development, whether the harm by reason of inappropriateness, and any other harm, is clearly outweighed by other considerations, as to amount to very special circumstances required to justify it

What decided it

The proposal constitutes inappropriate development in the Green Belt with substantial harm to openness that is not clearly outweighed by other considerations, and no very special circumstances exist to justify it.
