Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the decision to refuse a certificate of lawful use or development was well founded, specifically whether the steel railings constitute permitted development under the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) Order 2015

What decided it

The thin metal railings, being visually insubstantial and not providing an obvious enlargement of the external appearance of the dwellinghouse, constitute permitted development under Class C of the GPDO and therefore do not require planning permission.
