Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the breach of planning control alleged in the enforcement notice has occurred as a matter of fact
  • Whether the matters alleged in the notice constitute a breach of planning control as a matter of law

What decided it

The evidence demonstrated that the upper floors had been used as two separate self-contained flats providing independent residential accommodation, including periods of rental to tenants, which constitutes a material change of use under section 55(3)(a) of the 1990 Act for which no planning permission had been granted.
