You will normally need Listed Building Consent if proposed works would affect the special architectural or historic interest of a listed building. This can include extensions, alterations, demolition and changes to important internal or external features. The requirement is not limited to major works, so it is important to establish whether consent is needed before starting work.
They can. Listed Building Consent may be required for internal alterations where the works affect the building’s special architectural or historic character. This can include changes to historic layouts, staircases, fireplaces, doors, windows, panelling, plasterwork and other significant features. Listing protection generally applies to the whole building, not simply the exterior or the features specifically mentioned in the list description.
Possibly. Listed Building Consent and planning permission are separate approvals. Some projects require both, while others may require Listed Building Consent without a separate planning application. Building Regulations and other approvals may also be necessary. Planning World can review the proposed works and advise which applications are required.
The requirements depend on the property and proposed works, but an application will typically need existing and proposed drawings together with information explaining the significance of the listed building and the effect of the proposed alterations on its special architectural or historic interest. A Heritage Statement and other supporting information may also be required. Planning World can prepare the necessary drawings and supporting documents and manage the application on your behalf.
Seek specialist advice promptly. Carrying out works that affect the character of a listed building without the required consent can have serious legal consequences, and unauthorised listed-building works can constitute a criminal offence. Depending on the circumstances, the local authority may also take enforcement action requiring works to be altered or reversed. Planning World can review the works, assess the planning and heritage position and advise on the appropriate strategy for dealing with the local authority.
Yes. Planning World provides a full Listed Building Consent application service, from reviewing the proposed works and heritage considerations through to preparing drawings and supporting documentation, submitting the application and dealing with the local authority on your behalf. Where required, we can also prepare Heritage Statements and other supporting information needed to present the proposed works clearly and professionally.
