Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the breach of planning control alleged in the enforcement notice has occurred as a matter of fact (ground b)
- Whether there has been a breach of planning control, specifically whether the fence falls within permitted development rights or requires planning permission due to its location within the curtilage of a listed building (ground c)
What decided it
The fence is located within the curtilage of Quorn Hall, a grade II listed building, and therefore does not benefit from permitted development rights under the GPDO, requiring planning permission which was not obtained.
