Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

Whether the alleged breach of planning control comprising the material change of use of the outbuilding from incidental use to use as a self-contained residential flat has occurred as a matter of fact

What decided it

The enforcement notice does not specify with sufficient clarity the alleged breach of planning control and cannot be corrected without causing injustice to the parties, therefore it is invalid and must be quashed.
