Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the stationing of a shepherd's hut in a residential garden constitutes development requiring planning permission

What decided it

The Council's own acceptance that the stationing of the shepherd's hut would not constitute development and would not require planning permission rendered the Article 4 Direction inapplicable, as it applies only to temporary uses.
