Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the two outbuildings are permitted development under Class E of Schedule 2 Part 1 of the GPDO as buildings incidental to the enjoyment of the dwellinghouse

What decided it

The appellant failed to provide sufficient evidence to demonstrate on the balance of probabilities that the buildings, given their substantial size relative to the modest bungalow, were genuinely and reasonably required for purposes incidental to the enjoyment of the dwellinghouse.
