Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposed development would constitute permitted development in respect of Class Q (b) and paragraph Q1(i) of Part 3 of Schedule 2 of the GPDO with particular reference to the extent of the proposed building operations
- the transport and highways impacts of the development
- whether the location or siting of the building makes it otherwise impractical or undesirable for the building to change from an agricultural use to a use falling within Class C3 (dwellinghouses), in terms of the living conditions of future occupiers with particular regard to noise and disturbance
- the design or external appearance of the building
What decided it
The location and siting of the building in close proximity to an active agricultural building, combined with unacceptable highways impacts from increased traffic on an inadequate rural access track, made the conversion impractical or undesirable under the Class Q criteria.
