If you applied for a planning permission and you don't agree with our decision to refuse permission for the proposed development or to grant it subject to conditions, then you can appeal to the Secretary of State under Section 78 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990.
Whilst applicants have the right to submit an appeal, there are no rights of appeal for third parties.
Appeals are intended as a last resort and they can take several months to decide. It is often quicker to discuss with us whether changes to your proposal would make it more acceptable.
If you want to appeal, then you must do so within the requisite time period as indicated on the information supplied with the decision notice using a form which you can get from: The Planning Inspectorate at Temple Quay House, 2 The Square, Temple Quay, Bristol, BS1 6PN Tel: 0303 444 00 00.
