Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the siting of the container constitutes a breach of planning control, or whether it benefits from permitted development rights under the GPDO Schedule 2, Part 1, Class E (ground c)
  • Whether the steps required by the enforcement notice exceed what is necessary to remedy the breach of planning control (ground f)

What decided it

The container's eaves height exceeds 2.5 metres as measured under the GPDO technical guidance, placing it outside the permitted development rights under Class E, and the enforcement notice's removal requirement is the only step necessary to remedy the breach.
