Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the refusal of the certificate of lawful use or development was well-founded

The statutory declarations from occupants and the owner, combined with the absence of compelling evidence to contradict the domestic use claim, established on the balance of probability that the use had continued for more than ten years, placing it beyond the enforcement period.
