Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposal is permitted development, in particular, whether the building operations are reasonably necessary for the building to function as a dwellinghouse

What decided it

The absence of detailed information as to the full extent of works required to convert the building to residential use, combined with evidence that substantial repanelling of external walls and total roof replacement would likely be necessary, meant the proposal could not be confirmed as reasonably necessary building operations and therefore did not constitute permitted development under Class Q.
