Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the Council's decision to refuse to issue a lawful development certificate was well-founded, turning on whether at the time when the single storey extension was built, the property was a dwellinghouse eligible to utilise permitted development rights under Schedule 2, Part 1, Class A of the GPDO, and if so whether planning permission was granted for the single storey rear extension under prior approval application reference 19/2943

What decided it

The single storey rear extension as built differed materially from the prior approval scheme in layout, width and positioning, and was not carried out in accordance with the information provided to the Council, therefore it did not have planning permission and a lawful development certificate could not be granted.
