Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the construction of the timber fence constitutes a breach of planning control, specifically whether it qualifies as permitted development under Class A Part 2 Schedule 2 GPDO and whether it exceeds the 1 metre height limitation for fencing adjacent to a highway

What decided it

The two fence panels are sufficiently close to the highway to be adjacent to it for the purposes of Class A Part 2 Schedule 2 GPDO, and therefore do not qualify as permitted development and constitute a breach of planning control.
