Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposed detached garden room with toilet constitutes permitted development under Class E of Schedule 2, Part 1 of the GPDO 2015, specifically whether it is incidental to the enjoyment of the dwellinghouse

What decided it

The small size of the structure and the limited capacity of the toilet, combined with its external positioning, demonstrate that the garden room with toilet is incidental to the dwellinghouse and therefore constitutes permitted development under Class E of the GPDO.
