Planning application
The Cottage Chapel Lane Curridge Thatcham RG18 9DX
Works: Extension
Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.
Proposal
Application to determine if prior approval is required for a proposed: I am looking to install 6 panels (1.9 x 1.1M) on the flat roof extension to the rear of my property. They will sit in pods and be no higher than 54 cm off the roof at the highest point at a 15 degs tilt. They will not be visible from Chapel lane (front of the house) and the battery will be fitted to the side of my property (again cant be seen from the front). I believe that it is an area of natural beauty

What happens while it is decided
The process from here
This application is with West Berkshire 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 this record
Reading the register
This page mirrors an entry on the statutory planning register that West Berkshire is required to keep. The published feed for this record does not state which type of application it is, which is common for older entries and for some council systems; the register entry on the council portal will say, alongside the case officer and any consultation dates.
Every planning application follows the same broad path: submission, validation, publicity, then a decision by officers or committee. Our guide to planning application types explains the common types and what each can approve.
