Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

- whether the proposal would be unacceptable without a plans condition
- whether it is necessary and reasonable to limit the occupation and ownership of the cattery and the ability to sell and/or let the main farmhouse
What decided it
The proposed creation of a new dwelling within the cattery building would alter the operative description of the previously approved development and therefore falls outside the powers of Section 73 of the Planning Act.
