Fencing in Lancing
Lancing lies just east of Worthing, with a wide mix of bungalows, semis and newer homes between the seafront and the Downs. Seafront roads in particular see a lot of storm damage to fences.
Local tip. Adur and Worthing councils share a planning team, so the advice and process are very similar.
Who does what
| Planning questions | Adur District Council |

| Fences next to the road | Over 1m high normally needs planning permission |
Most back garden fences up to 2m do not need planning permission. Read the fence rules guide for the details.
