    Thanks. We have until the end of May to contest it. I will take a few pics to get peoples thoughts and any other advice.

    Thank you. We are absolutely going to avoid any action and remove the fence. What i would like to do is still be able to use the fence but move it legally. I can't see any legal planning issues if I move the fence behind the wall.

    Thank you. Looking at the planning portal you can have anything up to 2m high as long as it is not adjacent to a footpath or highway. From a legal perspective if the fence is behind the wall on posts would it be adjacent? If not it would not need planning (as long as it is less than 2m high) and they council could not force me to remove it?

    Hi - im looking for some help and advice. I was unaware that I would need planning permission to add a fence topper to my existing wall and for our new brick pillars and wooden gates, however I now know I have made mistake due to a footpath running adjacent to my walls (its corner house) and any fence etc can only go a meter high. We applied for retrospective planning which was declined. I have now received an Enforcement Letter to take my fence, pillars and gates down My question is: What is clsssed as adjacent? Could I remove my fence from the top of my wall and put it on posts behind it thus the wall is adjacent but the fence not? Also - How far from a footpath or road do i need to come onto my land to rebuild my pillars and gate to be over 1m? Any advice welcome
