Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the proposal would be permitted development under Class Q of the GPDO, having particular regard to Part 6, Q1(g) and Q1(j)
  • if the development would be permitted development, the effect of the proposal on highway safety and flooding

What decided it

The proposed development fails to qualify as permitted development under Class Q, paragraph Q.1(g) of the GPDO because other agricultural development (the two buildings approved and built in 2018) has taken place within the same established agricultural unit within the last 10 years.
