Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether or not the development is permitted development under the terms of the GPDO
- If it is permitted development, the effect the siting and appearance of the development would have on the character and appearance of the area including the significance of designated heritage assets
What decided it
The proposed development was restricted by conditions 8 and 10 of the original planning permission which required prior written consent of the Council for attachments and equipment, and no such consent had been obtained, therefore the development did not benefit from permitted development rights under the GPDO.
