Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal is permitted development
What decided it
The existing roof accommodation created by a previous roof alteration does not constitute an additional storey under the GPDO definition, as storeys do not include accommodation within the roof space, allowing the proposed additional storey to comply with Class AA restrictions.
