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 would be inappropriate development, 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 it
What decided it
The proposal represents disproportionate additions to the original building and would reduce openness of the Green Belt, and no other considerations are sufficient to clearly outweigh this substantial harm.
Substantial weight given to harm to the Green Belt was not outweighed by other considerations including family need, design quality, or lack of harm to the Surrey Hills National Landscape.
