The General Permitted Development Order (GPDO) allows for the change of use of some buildings and land to Class C3 (dwelling houses) subject to a prior approval process. Article 3(1) of the GPDO 1995 specifies that planning permission is permitted subject to the Conservation of Habitats & Species Regulations.
