Last year I had a large cast-iron balcony constructed with steps down into my garden. The balcony is bolted into the walls and also into the pavement where it meets the garden. Is there a requirement to earth this? If so, should it be a separate 10mm CPC direct to the CU or could I link it to the 6mm CPC currently protecting the garden sockets?

No requirement to either earth or bond the said item. Earthing and bonding are not the same thing by the way.
Nice job!
