Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the NPA's decision to refuse to issue a certificate of lawful use or development was well-founded
What decided it
The south elevation is the principal elevation of the dwelling, and the proposed extension would project beyond this principal elevation, thereby failing to qualify as permitted development under Class A of the GPDO.
