Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposal would be permitted development under the provisions of Class Q.1(a) of the GPDO, with particular regard to whether the site was used solely for an agricultural use as part of an established agricultural unit on 20 March 2013
  • If the proposal would be permitted development under the provisions of Class Q.1(a) of the GPDO, whether the proposed works amount to partial demolition to the extent reasonably necessary to carry out any building operations allowed by paragraph Q.1(i)(i) of Schedule 2, Part 3, Class Q of the GPDO

What decided it

The appellant failed to provide sufficient evidence that the site was used solely for an agricultural use as part of an established agricultural unit on 20 March 2013, which is a mandatory requirement for Class Q permitted development.
