Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the deemed refusal to grant a certificate of lawful use or development was well-founded, turning on whether the proposed use of the existing outbuilding as a self-contained annexe would be lawful
What decided it
The proposed annexe would be functionally connected to and form part and parcel of the primary use as a single dwellinghouse, and would therefore not amount to a material change of use.
