Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the outbuilding would be permitted development under Schedule 2 Part 1 Class E of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015 as amended, specifically whether it would be required for a purpose incidental to the enjoyment of the dwellinghouse
