The Plan Hub

Permitted development · Berkshire

Permitted development in Wokingham.

Permitted development lets some work go ahead without a full planning application, within set limits. In Wokingham those limits are tighter in conservation areas and on Green Belt land. We confirm what applies and secure a lawful development certificate from Wokingham Borough Council where it is worth having.

What is permitted development in Wokingham?

Should I get a lawful development certificate from Wokingham Borough Council?

Rights are reduced in conservation areas and can be removed entirely by an Article 4 direction. We check the position for your address before assuming anything.
