Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal would constitute permitted development under Schedule 2, Part 20, Class A of the GPDO
What decided it
The existing building, having accommodation in the roof which is excluded from the definition of 'storey' under paragraph C(2)(b) of Part 20, is only 2 storeys in height and therefore does not meet the minimum 3-storey requirement for Class A permitted development.
