Imagine that a single landing staircase has a lower landing that is 598mm off the floor level. the staircase proceeds down the wall to its right, reaches the landing and turns left towards the centre of the room. The balustrade/handrail on the left (viewed as if descending the stairs) reaches a newel at the lower landing and then stops. There is no balustrade/handrail anywhere on the right hand side of the staircase. Assuming all other factors are within limits (rise, going etc) does the stair comply with Part K?
Does it comply if there is a winder in place of the landing?
