Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the cumulative floor space of the existing building or buildings changing use under Class Q within an established agricultural unit exceeds 465 square metres
  • Whether the appeal proposal would consist of building operations reasonably necessary to function as dwellinghouses under Q.1(i)

What decided it

The extent of proposed building operations would constitute a complete rebuild rather than a residential conversion, falling outside the scope of permitted development rights under Class Q(b) of the GPDO.
