Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposed development would constitute permitted development in respect to Class Q(a) and paragraph Q.1(i)
  • If the proposal is found to constitute permitted development, whether prior approval would be required and should be granted

What decided it

The extent of partial demolition proposed, whilst sizeable, was not excessive and fell within what could reasonably be regarded as necessary for conversion under Class Q.1(i), supported by precedent appeal decisions allowing more extensive demolition.
