Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the demolition of the original dwellinghouse on the character and appearance of the area
  • The effect of the demolition of the original dwellinghouse on the supply of self-contained housing to meet projected housing needs

What decided it

The approved planning permission did not authorize demolition of the entire dwellinghouse but only of the porch, with substantial original fabric to be retained, therefore the unauthorized demolition was a breach of planning control that must be remedied by rebuilding as the notice requires.
