Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the location or siting of the building would make it impractical or undesirable for it to change from an agricultural use to a use falling within Class C3 (dwellinghouse) of the Use Classes Order, having regard to the access arrangements
What decided it
The location and siting of the building, whilst removed from the parking area, would not be impractical for residential conversion as it remains closely related to existing services and dwellings, and the pedestrian access across flat ground would be sensible and realistic.
