PL/10239 - Lawful development Approved

Proposal

We consider that a Lawful Development Certificate should be granted for this proposal because the works fall within permitted development rights, under Schedule 2 Part 1, Class B of the GPDO. The property is a lawful single dwellinghouse with no known restrictions on its permitted development rights. The proposed loft extension, which includes a rear-facing dormer to facilitate an additional bedroom, complies with all relevant criteria: it does not exceed the height of the existing roof ridge, remains within the allowable volume increase, is set back appropriately from the eaves, uses materials of similar appearance, and does not include any balconies or raised platforms. The proposal does not involve a change of use and solely enhances internal accommodation. As such, the development is lawful and planning permission is not required Data via plota.co.uk

Site constraints 1

Coal mining development high risk area
Recorded coal mining features at or near the surface. Most planning applications here need a coal mining risk assessment.
From the Mining Remediation Authority, formerly the Coal Authority. The development high risk area marks recorded coal mining features at or near the surface: mine shafts and adits, shallow workings, mine gas and former opencast sites. Most planning applications there need a coal mining risk assessment; householder applications, changes of use and some minor works are exempt. Mine entry positions come from old plans and can be out by several metres, and unrecorded workings can exist anywhere in the coalfield.
