Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the extent of the proposed demolition works are reasonably necessary to carry out building operations allowed by paragraph Q.1(i)(i) of Schedule 2, Part 3, Class Q of the GPDO
What decided it
The demolition of the lean-to, representing 31% of the building, was reasonably necessary to facilitate the conversion because it would enable proper access, egress and light provision while the retained barn would remain fully enclosed and capable of conversion into multiple units.
