- whether prior approval should be granted, with particular regard to the location of the building and biodiversity

The building was not solely in agricultural use as part of an established agricultural unit on the relevant date of 20 March 2013 or when last in use, therefore the proposal does not constitute permitted development under Class Q.1(a) of the GPDO.
