Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the location or siting of the building makes it otherwise impractical or undesirable to change from agricultural use to a use falling within Class C3 (dwellinghouses)

What decided it

The proposed dwelling could only be accessed through an operational haulage yard used for storing and manoeuvring vehicles, creating a conflict between traffic movements and residential use that would be harmful to the health and safety of future occupiers.
