Appeal by Mr Nathan Buckland against enforcement notices issued by Central Bedfordshire Council as Local Planning Authority for:

On 23rd April 2007 planning permission was granted for the change of use of the Land for the siting of 2 caravans under the reference number MB/05/01495/FULL subject to conditions. One of those conditions (Condition 2 of the planning permission) was that only 2 caravans should be sited on the Land. It appears to the Council that the condition has not been complied with because more than 2 caravans have been sited on the Land. and

Operational development of the Land without planning permission by the laying of hardstanding, erection of fencing over 2m high and installation of sewerage treatment works.

At 2 Magpie Farm, Hill Lane, Upper Caldecote, Biggleswade, SG18 9EZ.
