Hainsworth D

Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the external chimney breast extension constitutes permitted development under Class G of Schedule 2, Part 1 of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015
  • Whether planning permission should be granted for the front porch extension
  • Whether the enforcement notice is excessive in requiring demolition of the porch without offering the option to reduce it to permitted development size under Class D
  • Whether the compliance period of two months is reasonable

What decided it

The enforcement notice was varied to permit the appellant to reduce the porch to permitted development size under Class D rather than requiring complete demolition, as this alternative was less excessive and achievable with modification and reuse of materials.
