Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposal would constitute permitted development under the terms of Part 6, Class A of the GPDO
- whether the siting, design and appearance of the building would be acceptable
What decided it
The appellant failed to provide substantiated evidence that the landholdings are in use for the purposes of a trade or business as required by the GPDO, and therefore the land does not qualify as agricultural land under the permitted development regime.
