Q: Do I need planning permission?

Answer:
You can visit the planning portal's visual guide for householders which shows what types of household development may need planning permission or you can come into our reception in Croyland Abbey, Tithe Barn Road, and ask to speak to the Duty Officer.  This means that during the hours of 1:00pm - 4:45pm Monday to Thursday and 1:00pm - 4:15pm on Friday, there is always a Planning Officer on duty who will be able to help with all general planning enquiries.
