Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal would be permitted development under Schedule 2, Part 20, Class AA of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015 (as amended)
What decided it
The existing building is less than three storeys in height above ground level because part of the second storey is contained within the mansard roof, which means the proposal does not benefit from permitted development rights under Schedule 2, Part 20, Class AA of the GPDO.
