Awaiting decision West Berkshire 25/01953/HOUSE Householder Application

Works: Loft or dormer Windows or glazing Domestic

Read from the description, not a valuation. How we read the register

Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.

Proposal

Adding a small dormer window to complement the existing dormer window to increase natural light and improve ventilation. The proposed works will be done in conjunction with re-thatching of the ridge and roof, maintaining the same roofline and materials.

About householder applications

Householder applications cover work to an existing house and its garden, such as extensions, lofts and outbuildings, and cannot create a separate dwelling or change what the building is used for. More in our guide to planning application types.
