Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the outbuilding on flood risk in the surrounding area and the effect of the risk of flooding on the safety of future occupiers of the building

What decided it

The fallback position of a similar outbuilding that could be constructed under permitted development rights without flood risk protections meant that allowing the appeal with proposed flood mitigation measures would result in better flood risk management than refusal.
