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 on the openness of the Green Belt
  • the effect on protected species and biodiversity
  • whether the proposed annexe would be ancillary to the host dwelling
  • 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 result in disproportionate additions to the original building when considered cumulatively with previous extensions, constituting inappropriate development in the Green Belt that cannot be justified by very special circumstances.

Framework references: 153, 154, 155

Plan policies cited: Policy PP2, Policy PP13, Policy PP33
