Inspector: Peerless K

Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

On Ground (d): whether the current use of the appeal site is immune from enforcement action through the passage of time
On Ground (c): whether the alleged change of use is a breach of planning control that requires a grant of planning permission to authorise it
On ground (a): the effect of the development on the character and appearance of the surrounding rural area

What decided it

The alleged change of use from garden land in association with 114 White Dirt Lane to garden land in association with no.112 is not material and therefore does not constitute a breach of planning control.
