General Policy 3
Sets presumption against development in countryside subject to exceptions, including (f) for essential agriculture/forestry operations. Officer found container did not meet this as use was temporary domestic/smallholding storage, not essential agriculture. No established agricultural enterprise justified it over policy restraint.
Environment Policy 15
Permits agricultural buildings if need outweighs countryside presumption, sited near building groups, and appropriate in scale, materials, colour, siting, form to be sympathetic to landscape. Container failed on materials/design (inherent unattractive metal HGV-type) despite proposed green paint and hedging, creating discordant feature. Siting behind hedging was noted but insufficient to overcome policy tests.
