Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the enforcement notice specifies the alleged breach of planning control with sufficient accuracy and clarity

What decided it

The enforcement notice failed to specify the alleged breach of planning control with sufficient accuracy and clarity, as it omitted the equestrian use component and mischaracterised the purpose of the caravans, and correction would cause injustice to the parties.
