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 relevant development plan policies, including any relevant effects on the openness of the Green Belt
- the effect of the proposal on highway safety
- whether the 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 constitute inappropriate development in the Green Belt causing substantial harm to openness, and the other considerations did not clearly outweigh this harm to establish very special circumstances.
the substantial harm to Green Belt openness by reason of inappropriateness was not clearly outweighed by the modest housing contribution, limited accessibility to services, and absence of unacceptable highway safety impacts
