Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the Council's decision to refuse the certificate of lawful use was well-founded

What decided it

The appellant's voluminous and consistent documentary evidence, including tenancy agreements, bank statements, statutory declarations, and government correspondence, clearly demonstrated conversion to 5 self-contained flats by July 2020 and continuous residential use thereafter, which the Council failed to contradict with specific cogent evidence.
