Appeal an enforcement notice
Make an appeal
You can make an appeal to the Planning Inspectorate online or by post.
If you want to appeal more than one enforcement notice you must make a separate appeal for each. Each person should appeal separately.
You also need to send a copy of your appeal, including all the supporting documents, to your local planning authority. The Planning Inspectorate will tell you how to do this.
Documents you must provide
You’ll need to submit:
- a copy of your enforcement notice
- a plan (if there is one)
- any other documents that directly support your appeal, for example your grounds for appeal
- your appeal, if you’re appealing by post
You can upload these documents when you appeal online or post them to the Planning Inspectorate.
