Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposal would constitute permitted development with particular regard to the limitations set out in A.1.(e)(i) and (ii)
  • If the proposal is permitted development, whether or not prior approval is required having regard to matters of siting, design and external appearance of the proposed building

What decided it

The hardstanding for external storage of agricultural machinery exceeds the 1,000 square metre limitation set out in paragraph A.1.(e)(i) of Schedule 2, Part 6, Class A of the GPDO, meaning the proposal cannot constitute permitted development.
