Residential extensions and alterations

This SPD provides advice for anyone wishing to alter or extend a residential property.

It is intended to contribute to the creation of a high quality, sustainable built environment in line with the Council's aspirations for its present and future residents.

Achieving good design is a key aim of the development process and, to show its commitment of this aim, the Council will not approve poorly designed schemes.

A well designed extension will enhance and add value to your property.
