Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the steps required by the enforcement notice exceed what is necessary to remedy the breach of planning control

What decided it

A wall not exceeding one metre in height adjacent to a highway could be erected under permitted development rights, making complete removal excessive when reduction to one metre represents a realistic and less onerous alternative.
