Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the proposed development meets the requirements of Class A, Part 6 of Schedule 2 of the GPDO such that it would constitute permitted development
  • if found to be permitted development, whether the siting, design and appearance of the building would be acceptable

What decided it

The appeal site is not in agricultural use but is used for caravan and camping purposes, and therefore does not qualify as agricultural land under the GPDO permitted development rights.
