You're quite right George, why would anyone want to do this. As you say, one would probably get permission to do it anyway.The building within a building is always a strange discussion. I believe in Planning terms it would be seen as intentiomally circumventing planning regulations. Do you remember the case where someone build a house in a barn and then took the barn down?
Question is, why would you want to build smaller buildings inside a larger building? Also, I don't see why planning would be refused if you applied to replace a modern, larger building with something smaller and more traditional.
Was it a house (castle) built behind a straw stack? I think there is a specific clause for a CLEUD that says you can't deliberately disguise it. I haven't read anything about what i was suggesting not being allowed - but could be wrong.
To be fair, petmission might not be needed for internal ag works within an ag building, but building a completely seperate building with its own roof is probably obviously a different building.
I'll stick to driving tractors!
