Hertsmere BC v SoS Environment and Midas Developments Ltd

Hertsmere BC v SoS Environment and Midas Developments Ltd - 1992 - Journal of Planning and Environment Law (1992) JPL 442-446(5) .

QBD 16 May 1991. M`s plans to extend the accommodation at a listed building, rather than sell, were stalled by H`s refusal of planning permission as the building was sited in the Metropolitan Green Belt and thus subject to strict planning controls. An appeal against this decision was allowed by the inspector. This was challenged in turn at the high court under the terms of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 s288. At issue was whether the inspector had correctly tested the appropriateness of the development. The court found that he had and so upheld his decision.
