Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the Council's refusal to issue a lawful development certificate for the property being used as two self-contained flats was well-founded

What decided it

The collective weight of rolling AST agreements, housing benefit claims, bank statements, and separate Council Tax records provided sufficiently precise and unambiguous evidence on the balance of probability that the use as two self-contained flats had been continuous for more than four years without significant interruption.
