Rear Conservatory on Dwelling – Retrospective

The client contacted Planning By Design regarding a development in situ and its use as a conservatory (to the rear dwelling). The conservatory has been build a number of years ago. However, it was not fully understood by client whether the extension had planning permission or not.

Following a planning appraisal with one of our chartered town planners, it was determined that the best course of action to regulate the use of conservatory is the submission of a Lawful Development Certificate. 

One of our chartered architects produced accurate scale drawings which the client approved. Following approval of the architectural design, one of our chartered town planners has prepared the required Planning Statement, to justify why the application should be approved. The architect drawings and Planning Statement were submitted with the application. 

A Lawful Development Certificate has now been approved for a conservatory, which means the client will no longer at risk of planning enforcement and is now protected from further planning issues indefinitely.
