Why it was refused

  1. The scale and size of the proposed extensions constitutes inappropriate development within the Green Belt that would be harmful to the openness of the Green Belt and conflict with the purposes of including land within it. No very special circumstances outweigh the harm caused and the proposal is therefore contrary to policy CS6 of the North Somerset Core Strategy, policy DM12 of the North Somerset Sites and Policies Plan (Part 1) and the National Planning Policy Framework.

From the council's decision notice.
