Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the Council's decision to refuse to grant a certificate of lawful development in relation to the proposed new front garden wall was well-founded
What decided it
The new pillars at 2.19m height exceeded the height of the replaced railings at 1.92m and therefore breached Condition (c) of Schedule 2, Part 2, Class A of the GPDO, which prohibits development that would exceed the former height of the structure being replaced.
