Planning appeals

You can appeal to the Planning Inspectorate if you disagree with the outcome of your application. You cannot appeal against the council's decision if you are not the applicant.

You can appeal against:

• your application being refused
• a planning condition that you don’t agree with
• an application which was not decided within the agreed timescale
• an enforcement notice

How to appeal

For householder applications you have 12 weeks from the date of our decision to appeal.

For other applications you have six months from the date of our decision to appeal.

If you are unable to appeal online then contact the Planning Inspectorate directly

Phone: 0303 444 5000

Email: enquiries@planninginspectorate.gov.uk

Please make sure you also send us a copy of your appeal.
