...or back to school to learn how to spell?

But yes... there can normally be a conflict, but there is more than one way to skin a cat. Similarly to the issue on PD where side facing windows cannot have openings below 1.7m, etc... but when that window serves a bedroom, it needs to be suitable for means of escape. In that situation, the BCO can offer a compromise OR you go down the full planning application route.

why s that,
they send building control around to old buildings like barns to look at the state of it and see if it can be brought back already

I am not aware of any BCO's who visit buildings to determine whether they're feasible to be brought back

I this the same markbrick1 that demands continuity amongs bureaucratic, council institutions but prefers to build via a building notice?

ive had a few barn conversions and old run down property looked at when applications are in as planners have asked b c if they think the building worthy of renovation
