Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the Council's refusal to grant the certificate of lawful use or development was well-founded, in particular whether the proposal should be assessed against Class A and/or Class B of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015, and whether the proposed extension would be granted planning permission by Article 3, Schedule 2, Part 1, Class A and/or B of the GPDO
What decided it
The Government's Technical Guidance for condition B.2(b) explicitly describes L-shaped dormers joining original roofs to rear extension roofs as permitted, which directly applied to the facts of this case and required the proposal to be assessed under Class B rather than Class A.
