LT 1 December 1995. The appellant owned a property that was listed for rating purposes as `boarding house - part`, between April 1990 and March 1992. He contended that the property was domestic because from April 1990 to March 1991 it was his intention that it be available for short-stay accommodation only, and from April 1991 to March 1992 it was his intention that short-stay accommodation be for no more than six people simultaneously (all in accordance with the then legislation), and that he had sole or main residence. "Held" property was non-domestic for first period and domestic for second. Whilst appellant unable to prove his intentions in the first instance, the balance of probabilities suggested that he could in the second.
