Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether Class Q permitted development rights apply to the building subject of this appeal, having regard to the lawfulness or unlawfulness of the operations involved in its construction.

What decided it

The construction of Barn A did not accord with the 2015 planning permission and the four-year enforcement period had not expired, making the building's construction likely unlawful and triggering the Article 3(5) exclusion of Class Q rights.
