Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposal would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt
  • Whether the proposal is suitably located
  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
  • Whether any harm by reason of inappropriateness, and any other harm, would be clearly outweighed by other considerations and whether this would amount to very special circumstances necessary to justify the development

What decided it

The proposal constitutes inappropriate development in the Green Belt that would have a significant spatial and visual impact on openness, and the minimal self-build benefits do not clearly outweigh this harm or the other identified harms to location and character.
