DEVELOPMENT
NOT DEVELOPMENT
Requires planning permission
Does NOT require planning permission

• Some external alterations
• e.g. (normally, but not always) tvaerial,
  cat-flap, letterbox, drainpipe, etc
• Non-material change of use
• e.g. bedroom into kitchen, baker into grocer, etc
• Internal alterations
• e.g. internal walls, floors, ceilings, curtains,
  etc

• Most external alterations
• e.g. extension, patio, rooflight,fences and
  walls, satellite dish, etc
• Material change of use
• e.g. house into two flats, shop into bank, etc

PERMITTEDDEVELOPMENT
Granted planning permission by the General
Permitted Development Order 1995 GPDO.Works
that are permitted development do NOT require a
planning application,and do NOT fall under the
control of the Councils Planning Department.

2 What does the GPDO cover ?
Section 1Legal BackgroundPage 2 of 4

• The General Permitted Development Order 1995
  GPDO contains a number of sections, from Part 1
  to Part 40, each containing a number of Classes
  of development for which it grants planning
  permission.
• Many of these Parts relate to works by statutory
  undertakers. For example, the GPDO allows
  Councils, highways authorities, railway
  operators, sewerage undertakers, etc, to install
  things such as lampposts, bus shelters, telephone
  kiosks, rubbish bins, signs, utility pipes, etc,
  without requiring a planning application.
• This document looks at Part 1 of the GPDO, which
  relates to works to houses, and is the Part meant
  when most people talk about permitted
  development.

6
2 What does Part 1 of the GPDO cover ?
Section 1Legal BackgroundPage 3 of 4

• Part 1 of the GPDO
• APPLIES to houses (dwellinghouses).
• Does NOT apply to flats (either purpose built or
  converted houses).
• Does NOT apply to commercial properties.
• Does NOT apply to houses which have had their
  permitted development rights removed (either by
  an Article 4 Direction, or by a condition on a
  planning permission)
• Part 1 of the GPDO contains 8 Classes, from Class
  A to Class H. These cover works such as ground
  floor extensions, roof extensions, rooflights and
  re-roofing, porches, outbuildings, hard surfaces,
  chimneys / flues / SVPs, and satellite dishes.
• The amendment to the GPDO on 1 October 2008
  entirely replaced the previous version of Part 1.
  However, the amended legislation is still
  referred to asPart 1 of the General Permitted
  Development Order 1995 (as amended).

7
2 What is a Certificate of Lawful Development ?
Section 1Legal BackgroundPage 4 of 4

• Works that are permitted development do NOT
  require a planning application, and do NOT fall
  under the control of the Councils Planning
  Department.
• However, if someone undertaking such works wants
  confirmation that the works are permitted
  development, then they can apply to the Council
  for a Certificate of Lawful Development. This is
  an optional application.
• The assessment of such an application is a
  determination in law. The Council has no
  discretion, and can not take its policies into
  consideration. If the works comply with the
  GPDO, then by law the Council must issue a
  certificate.
• An application for a Certificate of Lawful
  Development can be made before undertaking such
  works (proposed) or after undertaking such works
  (existing).
• The London Borough of Lambeth strongly recommends
  that people apply for such a Certificate of
  Lawful Development before undertaking substantial
  works. However, it is an optional application,
  and many people choose not to make it.

Section 2 What works can be doneunder
permitted development? Part 1, Classes A to H

2 OVERVIEWIntroduction
Section 2Part 1, Classes A to HPage 1 of 23

• This section starts with an illustration of how a
  house can be significantly altered and extended
  under permitted development (Part 1 of the GPDO).
• This illustration imagines an owner who wishes to
  maximise the size of his house, with little
  regard to the aesthetics of the outside of the
  house.
• All of the works shown would comply with the
  amended GPDO, and would therefore be outside of
  the control of the Councils Planning Department.
• Although this illustration represents an
  extreme example of what an owner could lawfully
  do under permitted development, it is not
  unrealistic, as examples of such types of works
  can be found in real life.

2 DETAILSIntroduction
Section 2Part 1, Classes A to HPage 6 of 23

• The remaining part of this section details the
  work that is permitted by each of the 8 Classes
  of the amended Part 1 (Classes A to H).
• For each Class, there is an illustration showing
  examples of what is permitted, together with
  annotations stating the limitations of that
  Class. This is then followed by an explanation
  of how the amended Class differs from the
  previous Class.
• Please note that this is an introductory guide,
  and should not be used as a definitive source of
  legal information. The assessment of whether or
  not works would be permitted development should
  always be made against the full legislation
  itself (see links to the GPDO at the end of this
  presentation), rather than against any guidance
  document.

Section 3 What are the problemswith the
amended legislation? Examples of Ambiguities
33
2 AMBIGUITIESIntroduction
Section 3Examples of AmbiguitiesPage 1 of 19

• This section gives examples of some of the
  problems with the amended legislation, including
  phrases that are ambiguous and difficult for
  local authorities to know how to interpret.
• For each of the examples in this section, the
  first page sets out the Legislation,
  Scenario, and Question, whilst the second
  page sets out the Answer. These answers are
  based, wherever possible, on guidance from CLG
  and on relevant appeal decisions across the
  country, which the London Borough of Lambeth has
  been actively monitoring. However, for some
  questions, the answer is unknown, as no such
  guidance has been available.
• The 9 examples given in this section represent
  only a small number of the ambiguities within the
  amended legislation. In October 2008, November
  2008, and January 2009, the London Borough of
  Lambeth sent a 60-page document to Communities
  and Local Government (who produced the
  legislation) raising almost 50 questions about
  ambiguities.
• Please note that this document was written in
  July 2009, and therefore the answers given only
  represent the position of the London Borough of
  Lambeth at that time. This is because the London
  Borough of Lambeth is continuing to actively
  monitor guidance from CLG and relevant appeal
  decisions across the country, and therefore its
  position on such issues is liable to be updated
  as and when additional information becomes
  available.

34
2 AMBIGUITIES EXAMPLE 1The principal elevation
Section 3Examples of AmbiguitiesPage 2 of 19

• LEGISLATION
• Under Class B, a roof extension is NOT permitted
  on a roof slope which forms the principal
  elevation and fronts a highway.
• However, a roof extension IS permitted on a side
  elevation.
• SCENARIO
• A house is on a corner such that two of its
  elevations front a highway.
• One of these elevations contains the main
  windows, the other contains the front door.
• QUESTION
• For the above house, on which of these two
  elevations would a roof extension be permitted
  development ?

35
2 AMBIGUITIES EXAMPLE 1The principal elevation
Section 3Examples of AmbiguitiesPage 3 of 19

• ANSWER
• The Informal Views from CLG document confirms
  that, although most properties will only have one
  principal elevation, in exceptional
  circumstances a property might have more than one
  principal elevation.
• Hence, for the above corner house, where one
  elevation contains the main windows and the other
  elevation contains the front door, it is possible
  that BOTH elevations would be classed as the
  principal elevation. Hence a roof extension
  would NOT be permitted on either elevation.
• For a more typical corner house, where the main
  windows and front door are on the same elevation,
  it is likely there will only be one principal
  elevation, and therefore a side dormer would be
  permitted.

36
2 AMBIGUITIES EXAMPLE 2Basements
Section 3Examples of AmbiguitiesPage 4 of 19

• LEGISLATION
• Class A permits, the enlargement, improvement or
  other alteration ofa dwellinghouse, subject to
  various limitations.
• None of these limitations mentions or restricts
  the excavation of a basement.
• SCENARIO
• A typical house.
• QUESTION
• For a typical house, would the excavation of a
  basement be permitted development ?

37
2 AMBIGUITIES EXAMPLE 2Basements
Section 3Examples of AmbiguitiesPage 5 of 19

• ANSWER
• Unknown. (No guidance has been provided).
• Under the previous Class A, most Councils
  interpreted the (same) phrase the enlargement
  of a dwellinghouse to include the excavation of
  a basement.
• However, CLG have indicated that they intend to
  create a new Class specifically relating to
  basements.
• The London Borough of Lambeth is therefore taking
  the cautious option and assuming that basements
  are NOT permitted development.

38
2 AMBIGUITIES EXAMPLE 3Replacement of timber
windows with UPVC windows
Section 3Examples of AmbiguitiesPage 6 of 19

• LEGISLATION
• Under Class A, windows can be replaced or
  inserted.
• Condition A.3 (a) states that the materials used
  in any exterior work shall be of a similar
  appearance to those used in the construction of
  the exterior of the existing dwellinghouse.
• SCENARIO
• A house where all of the existing windows are
  timber.
• QUESTION
• For the above house, would the replacement or
  insertion of a UPVC window be permitted
  development ?

39
2 AMBIGUITIES EXAMPLE 3Replacement of timber
windows with UPVC windows
Section 3Examples of AmbiguitiesPage 7 of 19

• ANSWER
• Unknown.
• The Informal Views from CLG document states
  that this condition does NOT mean that the type
  of material needs to be the same or similar, just
  that the appearance needs to be similar. It
  states that in some cases this condition could be
  met where a similar colour is used. However, it
  then states that this might not always be
  acceptable.
• The above guidance still leaves it unclear in
  what circumstances the replacement of timber
  windows with UPVC windows would be acceptable or
  unacceptable.

40
2 AMBIGUITIES EXAMPLE 4Rear projection limit
on stepped rear elevation
Section 3Examples of AmbiguitiesPage 8 of 19

• LEGISLATION
• Under Class A, a ground floor extension on a
  terrace house is NOT permitted development if it
  would extend beyond the rear wall of the
  original dwellinghouse by more than 3 metres
  .
• SCENARIO
• A terrace house with a stepped rear elevation
  (e.g. a typical Victorian property with a rear
  return).
• QUESTION
• For the above house, which of the extensions
  shown on the right would be permitted development
  ?

41
2 AMBIGUITIES EXAMPLE 4Rear projection limit
on stepped rear elevation
Section 3Examples of AmbiguitiesPage 9 of 19

• ANSWER
• The Informal Views from CLG document confirms
  that where the rear elevation is stepped, then
  the rear projection limit will be stepped
  correspondingly.

42
2 AMBIGUITIES EXAMPLE 5Wrapping around a
corner
Section 3Examples of AmbiguitiesPage 10 of 19

• LEGISLATION
• Under Class A, a ground floor extension to the
  rear is limited to a 3m/4m projection beyond the
  original rear wall, and a ground floor extension
  to the side is limited to ½ the width of the
  original house.
• SCENARIO
• A typical detached house.
• QUESTION
• For the above house, which of the extensions
  shown on the right would be permitted development
  ?

43
2 AMBIGUITIES EXAMPLE 5Wrapping around a
corner
Section 3Examples of AmbiguitiesPage 11 of 19

• ANSWER
• Unknown. (No guidance has been provided).
• The Appeal Decision for 21 Holmewood Road
  (Planning Inspectorate reference
  APP/L5240/X/09/2094733) appears to suggest that
  wrapping around a corner would NOT be permitted.
  However, the Inspector did not appear to identify
  any particular limitation to which such a scheme
  would be contrary.

44
2 AMBIGUITIES EXAMPLE 6Eaves
Section 3Examples of AmbiguitiesPage 12 of 19

• LEGISLATION
• Under Class A, a single storey extension within
  2m of the boundary is limited to a maximum height
  of 4m, and an eaves height of 3m.
• SCENARIO
• A typical house, where a single storey extension
  would be within 2m of the boundary.
• QUESTION
• For the above house, what would be the maximum
  height for a flat roof extension (either with or
  without a parapet wall) ... ?

45
2 AMBIGUITIES EXAMPLE 6Eaves
Section 3Examples of AmbiguitiesPage 13 of 19

• ANSWER
• Unknown. (No guidance has been provided).
• Some Councils have taken the view that a flat
  roof extension does NOT have eaves, and that
  therefore the amended Class A would permit a flat
  roof extension up to 4m along the boundary.
• The London Borough of Lambeth is taking the
  cautious option and is applying the term eaves
  to the top of a flat roof and the top of a
  parapet wall, therefore requiring these to be no
  higher than 3m.

46
2 AMBIGUITIES EXAMPLE 7Between a side
elevation and a boundary
Section 3Examples of AmbiguitiesPage 14 of 19

• LEGISLATION
• Under Class E, an outbuilding in a Conservation
  Area is NOT permitted if any part of it would be
  situated on land between a wall forming a side
  elevation of the dwellinghouse and the boundary
  of the curtilage of the dwellinghouse.
• SCENARIO
• A typical house in a Conservation Area
• QUESTION
• For the above house, which of the outbuildings
  shown on the right would be permitted development
  ?

47
2 AMBIGUITIES EXAMPLE 7Between a side
elevation and a boundary
Section 3Examples of AmbiguitiesPage 15 of 19

• ANSWER
• Unknown. (No guidance has been provided).

48
2 AMBIGUITIES EXAMPLE 8A side elevation
Section 3Examples of AmbiguitiesPage 16 of 19

• LEGISLATION
• Under Class A, a ground floor extension in a
  Conservation Area is NOT permitted if it would
  extend beyond a wall forming a side elevation of
  the original dwellinghouse.
• SCENARIO
• A terrace house in a Conservation Area with a
  stepped rear elevation (e.g. a typical Victorian
  property with a rear return).
• QUESTION
• For the above house, would the rear/side infill
  extension shown on the right be permitted
  development ?

49
2 AMBIGUITIES EXAMPLE 8A side elevation
Section 3Examples of AmbiguitiesPage 17 of 19

• ANSWER
• The Appeal Decision for 27 Upper Culver Road
  (Planning Inspectorate reference
  APP/B1930/X/08/2092380) states that the side wall
  of a rear return IS a side elevation, and
  therefore such an infill extension in a
  Conservation Area is NOT permitted development.

50
2 AMBIGUITIES EXAMPLE 9Cladding
Section 3Examples of AmbiguitiesPage 18 of 19

• LEGISLATION
• Class A, Condition A.2 (a) states that in a
  Conservation Area, the cladding of any part of
  the exterior of the dwellinghouse with stone,
  artificial stone, pebble dash, render, timber,
  plastic or tiles is NOT permitted. This implies
  that outside of a Conservation Area, cladding IS
  permitted development.
• However, Class A, Condition A.3 (a) requires that
  the materials used in any exterior work shall
  be of a similar appearance to those used in the
  construction of the exterior of the existing
  dwellinghouse. This implies that cladding is
  NOT permitted development.
• SCENARIO
• A house outside of a conservation area.
• QUESTION
• For the above house, would cladding be permitted
  development ?

51
2 AMBIGUITIES EXAMPLE 9Cladding
Section 3Examples of AmbiguitiesPage 19 of 19

• ANSWER
• Unknown. (No guidance has been provided).
• However, even if cladding is NOT allowed, the
  painting of any surface (including brickwork) is
  still permitted under Part 2.
