What decided it
In Appeal A, the physical separation and independent access of the two constructed elements meant they constituted two separate outbuildings rather than a single two-storey building; in Appeal B, the drawings showed sufficient overlap to create a two-storey building which is expressly prohibited by Class E of the GPDO.
