Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposal would meet the definition of permitted development under Article 3(1) and Schedule 2, Part 3, Class Q of the Order, with particular regard to paragraph Q.1(i) as set out in the Order before 20 May 2024
What decided it
The extent of building operations required, comprising substantial repair and replacement of external cladding, perimeter walls, roof materials, and significant upgrading works, would constitute a rebuild rather than conversion reasonably necessary under Class Q.
