- Whether the proposal would be permitted development under Schedule 2, Part 3, Class Q of the GPDO, with particular reference to whether or not the building was last used solely for agricultural use as part of an established agricultural unit
What decided it
The building was not used solely for agricultural purposes when last in use, as it was used for mixed equestrian and agricultural purposes, which fails to satisfy the requirement in paragraph Q.1(a) of the GPDO for permitted development under Class Q.
