Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether, had the Council refused to grant a certificate of lawful use or development, that refusal would have been well founded
What decided it
The absence of evidence establishing what uses occurred on the land between 2014 and the application date in December 2023 meant that lawfulness at the time the application was made could not be demonstrated on the balance of probabilities.
