Planning and approvals in Gloucestershire

In England an annexe that stays part of the household and connects to the house is assessed as an extension, but its size usually takes it beyond permitted development, so a householder application describing the ancillary use is the normal route.

Before any drawing is finalised we check whether the house is listed, in a conservation area or subject to an Article 4 direction.

If the work involves a shared wall, building on the boundary, or digging foundations within 3 m (sometimes 6 m) of a neighbour's building, the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 applies and notice must be served before work starts: two months for work to a party wall, one month for new walls on the boundary and for excavations.

Applications are decided by the local planning authority (your district, borough or unitary council).
