The period total counts each appeal once when it is recorded as a householder appeal, one of the three planning-condition appeal types, or both. It is narrower than the total linked Planning Inspectorate casework used as the denominator in the evidence below.
Your planning decision
Have a refusal decision?
The planned private review will let you bring in the planning authority’s decision notice, identify the disputed points and compare source-located Inspector reasoning from relevant appeals.
Ordering is not open
Evidence to inspect, not a prediction of your outcome.
Appeal research
Compare appeal reasoning by issue
These local views use Sheffield City Council’s published cross-year evidence snapshot. They are research results, not a complete list of refusal reasons or an estimate of appeal prospects.

Planning Inspectorate casework
Householder and condition appeal evidence across five years
Across 1 July 2021 to 30 June 2026, this England-only rolling snapshot links 464 selected, decided Planning Inspectorate casework records to Sheffield City Council. Of these, 128 unique records appear in the householder or precise planning-condition evidence below.
The linked-casework count is the denominator used below, not a count of planning applications. The source can include specialist casework as well as appeals.
1 record appears in both views; the two headline counts should not be added together.
Official Householder (HAS) casework
Householder appeals
These are records whose official casework type is exactly Householder (HAS). That type can include different decision contexts, so use the underlying record to check what was disputed in each case. These outcomes do not predict what will happen in another appeal.

How to read householder decisions
Allowed means the Inspector allowed the appeal. Dismissed means the Inspector dismissed it. The label alone does not say whether the dispute was a refusal, an imposed condition or another matter; open the record for that context. The comparison rate uses these two clear outcomes only.

My case concerns a planning condition
Appeals involving planning conditions
Condition cases follow different routes. The figures below keep imposed conditions, variation or removal, and required details separate so unlike cases are not blended together.
