Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether or not the Council's refusal to issue the LDC was well-founded
What decided it
The land upon which the outbuilding is proposed forms part of the dwellinghouse's curtilage and the proposed gym is incidental to the enjoyment of the house, thereby qualifying for general permitted development rights under Class E of the Order.
