Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the Council's decision to refuse to issue an LDC for the existing use of part of the ground floor of 2 Oakhill Road as a self-contained flat was well-founded

What decided it

The appellant's evidence was not sufficiently precise and unambiguous to demonstrate on the balance of probability a continuous four-year period of substantially uninterrupted use as a separate flat.
