Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposed change of use from Class C3 to Class C4 would have been lawful if carried out on the date of application by reason of permitted development rights under the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015
  • Whether the proposed roof alterations would have been lawful if carried out on the date of application by reason of permitted development rights under the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015

What decided it

The roof alterations exceed the 50 cubic metre volumetric limit permitted under Class B(d) of Schedule 2, Part 1 of the General Permitted Development Order 2015 for non-terrace dwellinghouses, whereas the change of use to Class C4 is permitted development under Class L.
