Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposed change of use constitutes permitted development pursuant to Schedule 2, Part 3, Class Q of the GPDO, having particular regard to: (a) whether information in relation to access and curtilage is necessary to meet the requirements of Q (a); and (b) whether the building operations are reasonably necessary for the building to function as a dwellinghouse having regard to Class Q.1 (i)

What decided it

The proposed building operations, including substantial structural works, new first floor construction, and significant floor alterations, are not included in the list of permitted operations under Class Q.1(i) and go beyond what is reasonably necessary for the building to function as a dwellinghouse.
