Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposal would be permitted development under Schedule 2, Part 3, Class Q of the GPDO
  • If so, whether the location or siting of the building would make the proposal impractical or undesirable in respect of the living conditions of future occupiers
  • Whether sufficient information has been provided in relation to contamination risks on the site

What decided it

The siting of the building adjacent to the continuing agricultural use, with the proposed dwelling's curtilage and openings facing directly onto the rear yard, would result in significant disturbance to future occupiers that could not be adequately mitigated, making the proposal undesirable in respect of living conditions.
