Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the listed building enforcement notice is clear and certain as to the alleged contraventions and the steps required to remedy them

What decided it

The notice failed to specify its statutory purpose under section 38(2) of the 1990 Act and contained vague and imprecise requirements that would not have enabled the appellant to know with reasonable certainty what steps were required to remedy the alleged contraventions.

What the Inspector cited

Judgments
Miller Mead v MHLG [1963] JPL 151; Clive Payne v The National Assembly for Wales and Caerphilly Borough Council [2006] EWCH 597

How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
