Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the matters stated in the enforcement notice constitute a breach of planning control
  • Whether at the date the notice was issued, enforcement action could be taken
  • Whether planning permission should be granted for the extension and wall as built
  • Whether the steps required by the notice exceed what is necessary to remedy the breaches

What decided it

The extension and wall as built are poorly designed, dominate a prominent corner of the street scene, and are out of keeping with the visual amenity of the estate, whereas the approved compromise scheme would substantially improve their appearance and design.
