Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Appeal A: Whether the site is in mixed use for agricultural engineering and residential use (ground b)
- Appeal B: Whether the site is in a suitable location for residential use taking account of local and national policy in respect of rural housing (ground a)
What decided it
The building would become redundant if the enforcement notice were complied with, and its re-use for residential purposes would comply with Policy S4 and national policy with no identified planning harm, making the balance of material considerations favour a grant of planning permission despite the intentional unauthorised construction.
