Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Appeal A: whether the proposed development satisfies the conditions and limitations of Class Q of Part 3 of Schedule 2 of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015, as amended
  • Appeal B: whether the Council's decision to refuse to grant a certificate of lawful use or development was well founded

What decided it

The Council's failure to issue a refusal notice within the statutory determination period resulted in deemed grant of prior approval under the Murrell principle, and the structural evidence demonstrates the conversion works are reasonably necessary and do not exceed the scope of Class Q permitted development.
