Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposal would benefit from deemed planning permission as permitted development having regard to whether the curtilage of the building would meet the definition given at Paragraph X, Part 3, Schedule 2 of the Order
- if the proposal does amount to permitted development, whether the location or siting of the building would make it impractical or undesirable for it to change from agricultural use to a use falling within Class C3, having regard to the living conditions of future occupiers with particular regard to the proximity of the building to the adjacent barn
What decided it
The curtilage identified by the appellant met the statutory definition under Paragraph X, Part 3, Schedule 2 of the Order, and the siting of the building would not make conversion to residential use impractical or undesirable having regard to living conditions.
