Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the appeal proposal would be tantamount to the creation of a new dwelling

What decided it

The proposed annex would constitute ancillary accommodation to the main dwelling rather than a new dwelling, and therefore would not generate significant additional vehicle movements or require enhanced access arrangements.
