The main issue, as the Inspector framed it: Whether the decision of the Council to refuse the application for a certificate was well founded, concerning the limitations for permitted development under Classes B and C of Part 1 of Schedule 2 of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015, specifically what is the original dwellinghouse and whether the cubic content of the resultant roof space exceeds 50 cubic meters.

Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the decision of the Council to refuse the application for a certificate was well founded, concerning the limitations for permitted development under Classes B and C of Part 1 of Schedule 2 of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015, specifically what is the original dwellinghouse and whether the cubic content of the resultant roof space exceeds 50 cubic meters
What decided it
The identification of the original dwellinghouse as that which came into existence in 2002, combined with the calculation that the resultant roof space of 49.96 cubic metres did not exceed the 50 cubic metre threshold, meant the proposal satisfied all permitted development requirements under Classes B and C of the GPDO.
