Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal would be permitted development under Schedule 2, Part 3, Class Q of the GPDO, with particular regard to whether the site was in agricultural use as part of an established agricultural unit and whether the appeal building was a building brought into use after 20 March 2013 and has been used for a period of 10 years before the date of the application
What decided it
The appeal building was erected in around 2019 and had not been in use for 10 years before the application date, and the site was not demonstrated to be in agricultural use as part of an established agricultural unit for the purposes of a trade or business.
