Which extension suits a Ebbw Vale home?
Welsh housing ranges from stone terraces in the valleys to render-and-slate houses and modern estates, and the Welsh planning rules differ from England's in several places.
Start by comparing single-storey rear extensions, pitched roof extensions and side return extensions: between them they cover most of the layouts we see requested for houses like these.
Planning rules in Ebbw Vale
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 single-storey side return can fall within permitted development if it stays within the 4 m height limit and the width rules for side extensions. Conservation areas and listed buildings need consent, and the Party Wall Act applies to work on or near a shared wall.
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.
Building regulations approval is separate from planning. Wales has its own building regulations and approved documents; the council or a registered building control approver checks the plans, inspects the work and issues a completion certificate.
Applications are decided by the local planning authority (your county or county borough council, or the national park authority).
