Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the development proposed falls within the definitional scope of Schedule 2, Part 6, Class A of the GPDO
  • if so, whether the siting, design and appearance of the building are appropriate in their context

What decided it

The proposed cattle building would be located within 400 metres of a bunkhouse at a Scout campsite, which qualifies as a protected building under paragraph D.1 of Class A, Part 6 of the GPDO, placing it outside the scope of permitted development.
