Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal is permitted development, with regard to the extent of works required to convert the building to residential use
What decided it
The building's structural soundness and the retention of central spine walls meant the conversion works fell within the permitted development right under Class Q, distinguishing this case from previous refusals where additional structural support was required.
