Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

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

What decided it

The proposed development fails to comply with both Class Q(a) regarding curtilage extent and Class Q(b) regarding building operations reasonably necessary for conversion, as the works required would amount to comprehensive rebuilding rather than conversion of an existing agricultural building.
