Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether or not the proposal would comply with the conditions, limitations and restrictions of Schedule 2, Part 3, Class R of the GPDO
  • if so, whether or not prior approval should be given in respect of the transport and highway impacts of the proposal

What decided it

The proposal does not comply with the curtilage limitation in Schedule 2, Part 3, Class R of the GPDO, as the land within the red-line boundary substantially exceeds the area occupied by the agricultural buildings themselves.
