Frequently Asked Questions

Can I extend in a National Park?

National Parks have stricter controls and reduced permitted development rights.

Can I build right up to my boundary?

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

What is the maximum rear projection allowed?

Detached houses may extend up to four metres under standard rules, or eight metres with prior approval. Smaller limits apply to other house types.

Does building regulations approval still apply?

Yes. Even if planning permission is not required, building regulations approval is usually still necessary.

What measurements are used for height?

Height is typically measured from the highest ground level adjacent to the building.

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.
