Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

Whether the proposed outbuilding would meet the requirement of Class E(a) that it would be required for a purpose incidental to the enjoyment of the dwellinghouse as such

What decided it

The outbuilding's intended uses are genuinely incidental to the dwellinghouse's enjoyment and the scale of each component is proportionate to its function, satisfying the Class E(a) requirement despite the footprint exceeding that of the host dwelling.
