- Whether the Council's refusal to issue a certificate of lawfulness is well-founded
What decided it
The appellant failed to provide sufficiently precise and unambiguous evidence to demonstrate either that the conversion works in March 2014 constituted permitted development or that the property had been in continuous use as two self-contained flats for four years prior to the application date.
