Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the refusal to grant the certificate of lawful development for the single storey front enclosed canopy with seating area was well-founded
What decided it
The appellant failed to prove on a balance of probabilities that the development was constructed more than four years before the application date, and the structure does not benefit from permitted development rights as it extends beyond the existing front elevation.
