Planning and approvals in Tyldesley
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 Tyldesley address depends on its history and any designations, which is why we check it at the first visit.
Building regulations approval is separate from planning. In England you can use the council's building control team or a registered building control approver; a full plans application gets the drawings checked before work starts, and the inspector signs the work off with a completion certificate.
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).

Our survey diary covers Tyldesley, including M29, M38, M46, WN7. The same team covers Atherton (1 mile), Leigh (2 miles), Walkden (3 miles), Westhoughton (3 miles), all within easy reach.
Across the North West, terraced houses with small rear yards suit compact rear and side return extensions, while suburban semis have room for more.
