   Awaiting decision

   Decision expected by 11 November 2026, 8 weeks from validation under the statutory target for most applications. Extensions of time are common and are agreed case by case.

   Cumberland took a median of 56 days over the applications it decided in the last year.

The published feed does not show a live status for this application; the register on Cumberland's own portal holds the authoritative version.

Advertisement consent is judged on two things only: amenity and public safety, not competition or other planning considerations. More in our guide to planning application types.
