Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposed hip to gable conversion would extend beyond the plane of an existing roof slope forming the principal elevation fronting a highway, such that permitted development rights would not apply
What decided it
The rear projection, including its roof, forms part of the side elevation rather than the principal elevation fronting the highway, so the hip to gable conversion does not breach the permitted development criterion.
