Appeals

Applicants have the right to appeal against any planning decisions we may make.

Appeals must be submitted to the Planning Inspectorate within six months of any decision. All appeals must be lodged with the The Planning Inspectorate.

The appeal process is available to applicants only. Objectors and other interested third parties have no right of appeal under UK planning legislation.

If you are unhappy with your planning decision there are various grounds for appeal open to you and your appeal will be dealt with in one of three ways.

In addition we are currently taking part in a pilot project for fast track householder appeals. Participation in the fast track service is entirely optional. Additional guidance on how to submit your householder appeal can be found on the Planning Portal website.

You can view current and recent appeal details within our area via our Search & Submit facility or Interactive map. A step-by-step guide to using the map is available on our Planning map page.

Alternatively, to view a list of appeals we have received, decided and details of forthcoming inquiries and hearings please visit our Appeals information page.
