Frequently asked questions

Do you need planning permission for a new shopfront?
Almost always — shopfront alterations are not permitted development. In conservation areas and on listed buildings the design is also scrutinised closely and typically has to reflect traditional proportions and materials.
What is an Article 4 direction for shopfronts?
A council direction that removes specified permitted development rights in a defined area (often a historic high street or town centre). Within an Article 4 area, even minor changes that would normally not need planning permission can require a full application.
Can I get email alerts for shopfronts planning applications anywhere in Scotland?
Yes. Click the "Set up alerts" button on this page and you'll get a daily (or weekly) email listing every new shopfronts application submitted anywhere in Scotland. No need to pick a postcode or draw a map — pick the category once, choose your frequency, and we'll do the rest.
