Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether a certificate of lawful use or development can be granted for unrestricted use of the site for siting of caravans

What decided it

The planning permissions for the site are clear and unambiguous documents specifying fixed numbers of caravans (culminating in 112), and therefore an unrestricted certificate of lawful use cannot be granted.
