Find out how to apply for planning and building control permission, search for application information and get advice. You can also see information on listed buildings and find out about the Local Plan.

 

Conservation or listed building advice
Due to retirement and resignation the council will be unable to offer the conservation or listed building advice service for the foreseeable future. If you need advice, we would suggest that you consider contacting a local  heritage consultant. The council is unable to recommend anyone and we do not keep a list of approved consultants.
