Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposed development would comply with the conditions, limitations or restrictions applicable to development permitted by Schedule 2, Part 3, Class Q of the GPDO having particular regard to the extent of the proposed curtilage and the interpretation of Part 3 of the GPDO
  • Whether the building operations proposed are reasonably necessary for the building to function as a dwellinghouse

What decided it

The extent of the appeal site curtilage exceeded the definition in paragraph X of the GPDO (being significantly larger than the land area occupied by the agricultural building), thereby failing to meet the requirements of Class Q permitted development.
