Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

Whether the Council's decision to refuse to grant a certificate of lawful use or development was well-founded, turning on whether the proposed use is a material change of use from the lawful use as a single dwellinghouse falling within Class C3

What decided it

The presence of significant non-resident care staff, restricted access, security measures, two staff offices, and constant management indicated the property operated as a C2 residential institution rather than a C3(b) dwellinghouse where care is provided.
