Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the fences constitute a breach of planning control on the grounds that they are permitted development under Class A, Part 2 of Schedule 2 of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015

What decided it

The fences exceeded the permitted development height limits under the GPDO either because they were approximately 2.2 metres high (exceeding the 2 metre general limit) or, if at 2 metres, they were adjacent to the highway and therefore subject to the 1 metre height restriction.
