Frequently Asked Questions

How is the original house defined for measurement purposes?

The “original house” refers to the property as it stood on 1 July 1948 or when it was first built, not including later extensions.

Will neighbours be notified?

Under prior approval procedures or planning applications, neighbours are typically notified.

Are basements covered by permitted development?

Basement development may require planning permission, especially if it alters the external appearance.

What is prior approval neighbour consultation?

For larger extensions, councils notify neighbours and assess specific impacts before granting prior approval.

Can I build right up to my boundary?

It depends on height and location. Boundary proximity affects allowable eaves height.

What is the maximum size allowed under permitted development?

Size limits depend on property type and location. Detached houses may have larger rear extensions than terraced homes, subject to height and boundary constraints.
