Condition Details / Information Notes

Worcester City Council of The Guildhall, High Street, Worcester WR1 2EY HEREBY CERTIFY that application reference 26/00212/CLE registered on 6 March 2026 for a Certificate of Lawfulness Existing Use or Development is REFUSED in relation to the matter described in the First Schedule to this Notice in respect of the land specified in the Second Schedule to this Notice and outlined in red on the plan attached to this Notice, for the following reason :- The Local Planning Authority is not satisfied, on the balance of probability, that the existing use of the property as a House in Multiple Occupation (Use Class C4) has been carried on continuously for a period of at least 10 years prior to the date of the application. Insufficient evidence has been submitted to demonstrate uninterrupted use throughout the relevant period (6 March 2016 to 6 March 2026), with gaps in the documentary record. The information provided does not conclusively establish the continuity of the use for the required period. As such, the requirements of Section 191 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 (as amended) have not been met, and a Certificate of Lawfulness cannot be granted.

FIRST SCHEDULE Certificate of lawfulness for the existing use of a 5 bedroom House of Multiple Occupation. SECOND SCHEDULE 265 Tolladine Road, Worcester WR4 9AZ
