Allowed21 May 20243322523

363 Warrington Road, Warrington, WA3 5JQ

Planning appeal 3322523 at 363 Warrington Road, Warrington, WA3 5JQ (Warrington Borough Council) was allowed on 21 May 2024 by Inspector Griffin E, by written representations. The main issue, as the Inspector framed it: Whether the Council's decision to refuse to grant a lawful development certificate was well founded, specifically whether the land where the proposed garage building would be sited falls within the curtilage of the dwelling and therefore constitutes permitted development under Schedule 2, Part 1, Class E of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) Order 2015.

Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the Council's decision to refuse to grant a lawful development certificate was well founded, specifically whether the land where the proposed garage building would be sited falls within the curtilage of the dwelling and therefore constitutes permitted development under Schedule 2, Part 1, Class E of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) Order 2015

What decided it

The garage land, being hardstanding used for parking in association with the dwelling with no physical separation from the house and serving the dwelling's purpose in a reasonably useful manner, was intimately associated with the dwelling and therefore fell within its curtilage, making the proposed garage permitted development under Class E of the GPDO.
