Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the requirements of the enforcement notice exceed what is necessary to remedy the breach of planning control or any injury to amenity caused by the breach

What decided it

An obvious alternative to total demolition exists in the form of reducing the fencing, posts and gates to one metre in height adjacent to the highway, which would remedy the breach of planning control while being less onerous than complete removal.
