Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the building operations proposed would be reasonably necessary to convert the building to a use falling within Class C3
  • whether the appeal site forms part of an established agricultural unit and, if the site is found to be part of an established agricultural unit with Springridge, whether the proposal would constitute permitted development in respect of Paragraph Q1(g) of the GPDO
  • if the proposal is found to constitute permitted development, whether prior approval would be required and should be granted

What decided it

The proposal would constitute a substantial rebuilding rather than a reasonable conversion, and the site forms part of an established agricultural unit where prior development under agricultural permitted development rights precludes Class Q conversion rights.
