Conservation Area and Local Regulations
Heritage area properties have special planning requirements affecting possibilities. Area rules in heritage locations often favor ground floor approaches over larger developments. Your project must comply with heritage area restrictions and area rules.
While we focus on ground floor solutions, some consider double storey options. Extensions of more than one storey require complex applications and approvals. Double storey projects face stricter requirements than ground floor approaches.
Most find floor-level approaches work better with planning or building regulations. Extensions of more than one storey often need full permission rather than development rights.
