A prior approval establishes the principle of residential development on the site where, under normal circumstances, permission would not be granted in the open countryside for an isolated dwelling in an unsustainable location such as this. Instead it bypasses these policy constraints so the real value lies in the fact that the principle of residential development has now been established on the site providing an opportunity in applying for permission to re-develop the whole site using the prior approval as a fallback position.
The Sellers agent applied only for the workshop however apart from the building, the prior approval also relates to the curtilage of the subject building. The Regulations define ‘curtilage’ as follows:
(a) the piece of land, whether enclosed or unenclosed, immediately beside or around the building in light industrial use, closely associated with and serving the purposes of that building, or
(b) an area of land immediately beside or around the building in light industrial use no larger than the land area occupied by the building.
