Planning appeal decisions, 2016–2026

Householder appeals

Across all years in the archive (2016–2026)

46 allowed and 108 dismissed (154 decided), plus 4 split decisions. That is 5.6 percentage points below the national average of 35.5%.

Only 8 Householder decisions in the last 12 months (we need 20 for a recent figure), so this covers all years.

Allowed ÷ (allowed + dismissed). Split decisions, withdrawn, invalid and undetermined appeals are left out. Based on completed records in the Appeal Scout archive, which runs a little behind today's date because decisions are added after publication.

Householder appeals allowed, year by year

Dashed outlines mark years with fewer than 10 decided appeals, too few to chart. 2016 starts in April and 2026 runs to 28 August.
