Planning application
DC/26/00491/FUL
Yeshiva Gedola Nezer Hatorah 82 Bensham Road Gateshead NE8 1PS
Proposal
Installation of six additional rooflights, positioned along the front roof slope, and two on rear side carefully aligned to match the existing rooflights on the rebuilt annex and reinforce visual symmetry and coherence across the roofscape. The rooflights will be conservation-style, flush-fitting and appropriately proportioned to minimise visual impact. Full re-roofing works using Welsh slate tiles to replace the existing roof covering, which is in poor and sagging condition, match traditional materials historically associated with the building, and match the materials used on the recently approved and constructed annex.
As published by the council, reference DC/26/00491/FUL

What happens while it is decided
The process from here
This application is with Gateshead for determination. The council publicises it, consults neighbours and technical bodies where required, and weighs the responses against local and national planning policy.
The statutory target is eight weeks for most applications and thirteen for major development, though extensions of time are common. Comments carry most weight while the case is undecided, so check the council portal for the deadline if you want to respond.
About full applications applications
How this application type works
A full application seeks permission for a complete, detailed proposal in one go: siting, design, access and landscaping are all fixed at this stage. It is the standard route for new buildings, conversions and changes of use. The statutory target is eight weeks for smaller schemes and thirteen weeks for major development, though complex cases often take longer by agreement.
