Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the listed building enforcement notice is valid and capable of correction
What decided it
The notice failed to clearly identify which of two windows in the eastern elevation was the subject of enforcement action, and the replacement window requirements were too vague to ensure restoration of the building's character, rendering the notice invalid and incapable of correction.
