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 the appellant has shown that planning permission is granted for the proposal by the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015 (as amended) at Article 3(1), Schedule 2, Part 1, Class E
What decided it
The appellant failed to demonstrate on the balance of probability that the outbuilding, particularly the 27m² snug room and the 18m² home gym without supporting detail, would be reasonably required for purposes incidental to the enjoyment of the dwelling, and the outbuilding's substantial size relative to the dwelling (50m² compared to 43m²) did not support such a finding.
