Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The main issue in a ground (b) appeal is whether as a matter of fact the Land was in use as a mixed use comprising a synagogue and a dwellinghouse
  • If those matters did occur, the ground (c) is that those matters do not constitute a breach of planning control

What decided it

The Inspector found that, as a matter of fact and degree, the use of the prayer room by the Appellant's extended family was incidental to the lawful use of the property as a dwellinghouse, so no material change of use had occurred.
