Statutory Definition of Development in The United Kingdom
'Development' is defined by statute in the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 s55(1), as 'the carrying out of building, engineering, mining or other operations in, on, over or under land, or the making of any material change in the use of any buildings or other land'. This definition is clarified by the remainder of s55 and the inclusion of the Generally Permitted Development Order 1995 and the Use Classes Order 1987.

His laughter tinkled among the teacups.

And of Priapus in the shrubbery

My gorgeous palace for a hermitage,

And my large kingdom for a little grave,
A little, little grave, an obscure grave.”
