Planning Approval and Permitted Development
Planning Approval and Permitted Development
In addition to LBC, works and extensions to Listed Buildings may also require Planning Approval and Building Regulations Approval. It is advisable to discuss proposed works with the Conservation Officer and/or a Building Control Officer, before submitting applications.
Under the Planning Legislation certain works are normally permitted without the need for express planning approval. This is 'Permitted Development'. Such permitted development is restricted for buildings in Conservation Areas and for Listed Buildings. On Listed Buildings, however, LBC is required for most 'permitted development'.
