Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the listed building enforcement notices were validly issued and served
- Whether the notices are a nullity due to lack of explanatory note and absence of delegated authority
What decided it
The notices are a nullity because the Council failed to produce evidence of delegated authority to issue them and the requirements lacked sufficient certainty as to what the original shopfronts should be.
