Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the requirements of the enforcement notice are excessive to achieve the purpose of the notice

What decided it

In the absence of an appeal on ground (a), general planning considerations cannot be considered when determining a ground (f) appeal, and retention of any part of the unauthorised timber structure would not remedy the breach of planning control.
