The following pages give advice on how to apply for planning permission and explain how the Council will deal with your application. They also explain how to view and comment on current applications.

If you need any more advice about submitting, viewing or commenting on a planning application please get in touch with us – see How to contact Development Control for contact details. We would advise you to contact us if you are thinking of applying for planning permission so we can offer you help and advice before you make your application.

Also if you are thinking about carrying out building work to your home you may need Building Regulations approval as well as planning permission. Please see our Building Control pages for more information.
