Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the period specified for compliance with the enforcement notices (12 months) falls short of what should reasonably be allowed under section 174(2)(g) of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990

What decided it

The absence of detailed evidence demonstrating that the appellants could not comply within 12 months, combined with the public interest in enforcing planning control against development contrary to countryside protection policies, outweighing the qualified Article 8 ECHR rights.
