What a grant of permission means

The process from here

Permission has been granted, usually subject to conditions listed on the decision notice, some of which must be discharged before work starts. The decision notice on the council portal sets out exactly what was approved.

Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses. Neighbours cannot appeal a grant; challenging one means judicial review of how the decision was made, within tight time limits.

About trees applications

How this application type works

Tree applications cover work to protected trees: those under a tree preservation order need consent for pruning or felling, and trees in a conservation area need six weeks written notice before work starts. The council assesses the amenity value of the tree and can refuse consent, approve it with conditions, or in conservation areas make a preservation order in response.

    Description of your enquiry: I would like to clad the upper floor exterior of our detached house using HardiPlank cladding with 25mm Celotex insulation panels behind in order to enhance the appearance of the house and increase the heat insulation properties. Currently the upper floor is rendered and painted, but in places the render (now approx. 30 years old) is coming away/cracking. There would be no change to the footprint of the house and no structural work required other than adding battens to the outside wall in order to support the cladding planks. Plans and supporting information: Other information: I wanted to check whether I am required to submit a planning application to add cladding to the upper floor of the outside of my home, to cover the existing render. The attached photos show the yellow render on the upper floor which we would like covered with HardiPlank cladding (a premium fiber cement cladding) with 25mm Celotex insulation sheets behind. The attached photos were taken in 2021 when the gutters, barge boards and soffits were replaced. Please let me know if you require any further information.

    Looking at paving or gavelling part of the front lawn up to the gate to match the width of the dropped curb (permeable paving or gravel) Just to clarify, I am installing an EV charger just outside the sidegate (close to the electricity meter) and was hoping to create that parking area for the EV next to it to avoid stretching a very long lead across the drive and the passage to the main door ( as a matter of safety). I have atrached the title plan showing that this area is within the property boundaries.
