Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the appellant has shown on the balance of probability that the proposed operations would be lawful if begun at the time of the application
What decided it
The enforcement notice requiring demolition of the unauthorised outbuilding had not been fully complied with, as elements of Sections 3 and 4 remained on site, rendering the proposed development unlawful and preventing the grant of a certificate of lawful development.
