Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the Council's refusal to grant a certificate of lawful use or development was well-founded, turning on whether planning permission is granted for the proposal by the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015 at Article 3, Schedule 2, Part 2, Class A

What decided it

Patmore Lane is not a highway within the meaning of the GPDO because members of the public do not have the right to pass and re-pass along it, being a private road within a gated residential estate with restricted access.
