Planning application
Fitzgerald Corner 84 Victoria Road Woodbridge Suffolk IP12 1EL
Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.
Proposal
Certificate of Lawful use (Proposed) - Installation of a garden studio building within the rear garden of the property to be used as incidental accommodation to the main dwelling. The structure will comply with the definition of a caravan under the Caravan Sites and Control of Development Act 1960 (as amended) in terms of size, mobility and construction, and will remain within the residential curtilage of the property. The unit will be used for purposes ancillary to the main dwellinghouse and will not be occupied as a separate self-contained dwelling.

About lawful development applications
A lawful development certificate is a legal determination that existing or proposed works do not need planning permission; the merits of the scheme are not considered. More in our guide to planning application types.
