Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the Council's refusal to grant the certificate of lawful use or development was well founded, specifically whether the proposed outbuilding would be granted planning permission by Article 3, Schedule 2, Part 1, Class E of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015, as amended
What decided it
The appellant failed to provide sufficient evidence to demonstrate that the proposed outbuilding would comply with the height restrictions in Class E of the GPDO when measured from the natural ground level, as the ground levels shown on the plans did not represent the actual natural ground level of the site which had been subject to levelling works.
