Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

Whether the appellant has demonstrated on the balance of probabilities that the alterations have been substantially completed for a period of four or more years prior to the date of application

What decided it

The ambiguity and internal inconsistencies in the evidence regarding whether a single or double access door was installed, combined with imprecise supporting documentation, meant the appellant failed to discharge the burden of proof on the balance of probabilities that the works were substantially completed four or more years before the application.
