Case Study

Unauthorised Change of Use of Agricultural Land to Domestic Garden Issued Certificate of Lawful Existing Use

Local Planning Authority
Sevenoaks District Council

Our team has demonstrated that the use of the land as a domestic garden has been continually used for more than 10 years and therefore immune from enforcement action.

This meant the buildings within the garden were ancillary to the house use as well.

The client was then able to market the house for sale without any uncertainty about the authorised extent of the garden and the use of the buildings.
