Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposal would be permitted development under Class Q of the General Permitted Development Order

What decided it

The proposed building operations would remain wholly within the line of the existing steel frame and constitute reasonably necessary works for conversion rather than a rebuild, thereby complying with the limitations set out in Class Q1(h) and (j) of the GPDO.
