Why it was refused
- It is the Council's position that the development proposed does not constitute permitted development under the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) Order 2015, Schedule 2, Part 6. The proposed development has not been adequately evidenced to be for 'the carrying out on agricultural land comprised in an agricultural unit of 5 hectares or more...which are reasonably necessary for the purposes of agriculture within that unit'. In light of the above, there is no legislative context for the application submitted to be further considered and as such no formal determination with regard to other prior approval matters, namely the siting and design of the building, will be made.
From the council's decision notice.
