I want to rebuild my front garden wall higher than it is, with brick piers and metal railing sections. This is likely to involve new concrete footings. My understanding is that the footings should extend beyond the width of the wall which is fine on the garden side, but what I want to know is what to do on the pavement side?

Just undercut it 2 or 3 inches. If it's just a garden wall, you won't need wide foundations.
Whatever you do don't bring it up with the council - you'll just get passed from pillar to post; no-one will twig anyway.

That sounds good to me. Don't suppose you're up for giving me a quote for a bit of work in South Manchester? Want a porch building, re-rendering front elevation and converting the bay flat roof to a pitched one? If not you, do you know of anyone? pm me.
