Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

whether the unauthorised storage shed and bin store forward of the principal elevation constitutes a breach of planning control and, if so, whether planning permission should be granted on the deemed application under section 177(5)

What decided it

The unusual and unreplicable circumstances of the case—the need for secure cycle storage for five school-cycling children with no practical rear garden access—outweighed the general principle against front garden structures, particularly where the shed was well-built and could be screened by a retained hedge.

the unusual circumstances of the need for secure cycle storage for five children, the practical difficulty of rear garden access, and the visual mitigation provided by the laurel hedge outweighed the general harm to the streetscene from front garden structures
