Which extension suits a Haverfordwest home?

In Wales, terraced houses with rear offshoots are common in the towns, while detached houses and bungalows dominate in rural areas.

Depending on the plot, single-storey rear extensions and pitched roof extensions are often the strongest options, with side return extensions worth considering where there is room.

Planning and building control in Haverfordwest

In Wales a single-storey rear extension can usually project up to 4 m beyond the rear wall without a planning application, if it is no more than 4 m high, keeps eaves to 3 m and overall height to 4 m within 2 m of a boundary, and covers no more than half the land around the original house. Wales has no larger home extension prior approval scheme.

In Wales a rear extension of more than one storey can be permitted development only if the ground floor projects no more than 4 m, the upper floor no more than 3 m, it stays at least 10.5 m from the rear boundary and it is not in a conservation area, national park, National Landscape or World Heritage Site. Anything larger needs a planning application to the council.

In a conservation area, national park, National Landscape or World Heritage Site the permitted development limits are tighter (no side or two-storey extensions without an application). Listed homes need listed building consent, and if permitted development rights have been removed, any extension needs an application.

The Party Wall etc. Act 1996 applies in Wales as in England: notice must be served before work to a shared wall, building on the boundary, or excavating close to a neighbour's foundations.

Applications are decided by the local planning authority (your county or county borough council, or the national park authority).
