Introduction
Inspector's decision
"However, notwithstanding that the Council has always treated the use as agricultural… the allegation in the enforcement notice does not qualify the breach in this way.
"Fish farm" describes the use of land and the evidence is that this is what the appeal property has been used for since at least 1990."
"that only occupier he, namely Mr Michaelson Yates could specifically recall occupying the building was a young man who rode a motorbike up and down the site but that was only for the period of 1999 to 2001."
