Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposed development would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt having regard to the National Planning Policy Framework and development plan policies including the effect on the openness of the Green Belt
  • The effect of the proposed development on the Chilterns National Landscape
  • If the proposed development would be inappropriate development, whether the harm by reason of inappropriateness, and any other harm, is clearly outweighed by other considerations, so as to amount to very special circumstances necessary to justify it

What decided it

The proposed development satisfies the exception in NPPF paragraph 154(g) for redevelopment of previously developed land that would not cause substantial harm to Green Belt openness, and therefore does not constitute inappropriate development.

Framework references: 154

Plan policies cited: Policy GB2, Policy GB15, Policy GC1, Policy LSQ1, Policy CS20, Policy CS22
