What decided it
The appellants' evidence was insufficiently detailed and unambiguous to prove on the balance of probabilities that the material change of use commenced before 15 March 2012 and continued substantially uninterrupted thereafter.
The main issues and the deciding factor are read from the published letter by Town Planner Pro; the letter itself is the record. Contains public sector information licensed under the Open Government Licence v3.0. Research, not advice.
