Checked on 6 October 2026. The pin for this application is the centre of its postcode rather than the building, so distances to nearby designations are measured from the postcode and can be out by the width of the postcode area. Historic England, the Environment Agency, Natural England, the Planning Inspectorate and council datasets, Open Government Licence. A boundary can run through a site and the council holds the definitive record: confirm with the council before relying on this.

Crawley is one of the slowest councils in England for householder decisions, ranking #288 out of 296. The council extends the time limit on 73% of applications - one of the highest rates in England. Expect your application to take longer than the standard deadline. Crawley is also one of the strictest councils - it refuses more householder applications than almost any other, with only 82% approved vs 90% nationally.
