For homes towards South Yorkshire, Darton is around 12 miles away. Yorkshire and the Humber combines stone-built terraces in the Pennine towns with brick semis and newer estates elsewhere, so materials and roof details need matching with care.

Do I need planning permission in Castleford?

In England a porch is usually permitted development if its ground floor area is no more than 3 m² measured externally, no part is over 3 m high, and no part is within 2 m of a boundary next to a road.

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

Building over or within 3 m of a public sewer needs the water company's consent, usually through a build-over agreement, before the foundations go in.

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).
