Tel 01624 685950 This decision has been made for the following reasons(s) Whilst the workshop/barn does not fit within General Policy 3, garages are a common feature within residential curtilages. The workshop/garage is larger than a 'normal' garage but on balance it is considered there will be a minimal impact on the overall area due to structure being an agricultural barn which may not look out of place within the overall area Date of Issue: 29th September 2020 Director of Planning and Building Control
