Nearby activity
Wiltshire is slower than most councils at deciding householder applications, ranking #225 out of 296. The council extends the time limit on 55% of applications - one of the highest rates in England. Expect your application to take longer than the standard deadline. Householder applications are slightly more likely to be approved here (96%) than the national average (90%).
