Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the Council's decision to refuse the application for a Lawful Development Certificate (LDC) was well-founded
What decided it
The site of the proposed hardstanding, being a verge between the terrace and the road separated from the front garden by a hedge and forming part of the estate's landscaping, does not fall within the curtilage of the dwellinghouse and therefore does not qualify as permitted development under Class F of the GPDO.
