Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposed use as a restaurant (use class E(b)) would have been lawful if instituted or begun at the time of the LDC application (15 December 2020)

The change of use from Class E(a) to Class E(b) within the same use class does not constitute development under the Town and Country Planning (Use Classes) Order 1987 as amended, therefore the use would have been lawful.
