Do I need planning permission in Tamworth?
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.
The planning position for a specific Tamworth address depends on its history and any designations, which is why we check it at the first visit.
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.
Applications are decided by the local planning authority (your district, borough or unitary council).
Extensions in and around Tamworth
Our survey diary covers Tamworth, including B77, B78, B79. The same team covers Lichfield (6 miles), Burntwood (10 miles), Burton upon Trent (12 miles), Rugeley (13 miles), all within easy reach.
Just over the Warwickshire border, Atherstone is about 7 miles away. The West Midlands has a large stock of 1930s and post-war semi-detached houses, which are well suited to rear, side and over-garage extensions, plus Victorian terraces in the older inner areas.
