Planning & Development

Getting planning permission depends on the judgement of the local planning authority or the Assembly who must consider the facts relating to the proposal, the policies in the development plan and the characteristics of the proposed property itself.

Obtaining planning permission can be a time-consuming process and even if granted conditions can be imposed on the way the property is built. Listed buildings, conservation areas, tree preservation orders, and agricultural occupancy conditions are just a few of the areas in which complications can arise.
