Are you thinking of adding Hardstandings?

Hardstandings Planning Permission

If you are thinking about building a hardstanding you are probably wondering do I need planning permission for such a small job?

The good news is that hardstandings can often be built under permitted development meaning they don’t need planning permission. However, this is not to say that every hardstanding can be permitted development.

In order to be permitted development they must meet all of the necessary planning and design criteria and there must not be any hidden constraints which limit or remove your permitted development rights.

If even one of the criteria is not met for permitted development, then full planning permission will be required not matter how close your project is to complying. Equally if there are any constraints that remove your permitted development rights then planning permission will be required for everything.
