What This Area Project Page Is For
What usually applies
Start with the local page for the council area you care about, because the national baseline is only half the answer once local restrictions matter.
What often changes it
Conservation areas, Article 4, listed buildings, local design expectations and the exact dimensions of the scheme can all change the route.
Best next step
Compare the 5 council areas below, then open the local project guide and the rule page that looks most likely to decide the answer for your site.
When This Area Comparison Usually Helps And When You Should Go Straight To A Local Page
Usually enough for a first pass when
- You are still comparing councils and have not narrowed the project to one site-specific route yet.
- The uncertainty is about where single storey extension feels more sensitive rather than whether one exact drawing already works.
- You want to understand the likely local pressure points before paying for more detailed design work.
Go more local when
- One council area, one conservation area or one exact property constraint is already doing most of the work.
- The scheme is close to a height, boundary, roof or visibility limit.
- You need a reliable route decision rather than a comparison-led briefing.
What usually settles it faster
- Open the matching local project guide for the correct council below.
- Pair it with the rule page that looks most likely to block or change the route.
- If the scheme is borderline, move to measured drawings and written confirmation rather than relying on comparison alone.

- Projects close to a boundary, roof limit or visual-impact threshold are more likely to need a careful local check.
- Where the local route still feels uncertain, comparing one or two neighbouring councils often clarifies the real issue.
