Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposal is permitted development, with regard to whether on 20 March 2013 (the relevant date) the building was used for an agricultural use as part of an established agricultural unit

What decided it

The absence of evidence that any tradable produce had been made or crops harvested in over 10 years meant the building could not be shown to have been in use for agricultural purposes as a trade or business at the relevant date, and therefore did not benefit from permitted development rights.
