Planning Decision
Why it was refused
- The proposed development would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt, failing to comply with the exceptions outlined under paragraph 154 of the NPPF. Other harm is identified by way of visual and spatial harm to the openness of the Green Belt due to the size and siting of the development. No very special circumstances have been presented to clearly outweigh the identified harm contrary to policy GBR1 of the East Herts District Plan 2018 and NPPF.
From the council's decision notice.
