Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the Council's decision to refuse to grant a Certificate of Lawful Use or Development was well founded.

What decided it

The replacement windows, doors and render do not materially affect external appearance or breach permitted development conditions, whereas the relocated gate and heightened fence exceed the one-metre threshold for enclosures adjacent to vehicular highways and exceed the former fence height, requiring express planning permission.
