Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Appeal A ground (c): whether the creation of a hard surface area and hard surface access way constitutes a breach of planning control
  • Appeal A ground (f): whether the steps required by the notice exceed what is necessary to remedy the breach
  • Appeal A ground (g): whether the period for compliance is reasonable
  • Appeal B: whether the application under section 73 falls outside the scope of that process owing to the judgment in Finney

What decided it

The appellant's clear intention to pursue the materially different scheme proposed in application PL/23/4148/VRC (rather than the original permission PL/22/3758/FA) means temporary permitted development rights cannot apply, and the hard surfaces constitute an unauthorised breach requiring removal unless planning permission is subsequently granted.
