Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the building is part of an established agricultural unit
  • whether the proposed extension is sited anywhere other than to the rear of the existing building

What decided it

The proposed extension is sited to the front elevation of the barn (facing the field) rather than to the rear elevation (facing Silsoe Road), and therefore does not comply with the permitted development restrictions under Schedule 2, Part 3, Class Q.1(i)(ii) of the Order.
