The Plan Hub

Permitted development · Surrey

Permitted development in Egham.

Permitted development lets some work go ahead without a full planning application, within set limits. In Egham those limits are tighter in conservation areas and on Green Belt land. We confirm what applies and secure a lawful development certificate from Runnymede Borough Council where it is worth having.

Common questions

What is permitted development in Egham?

Permitted development is a set of national rules that allow certain extensions and changes without a full application. Limits on size, height, position and materials apply, and Runnymede Borough Council can confirm a scheme qualifies through a lawful development certificate.

Should I get a lawful development certificate from Runnymede Borough Council?

It is the written proof that work was lawful, and it removes doubt when you come to sell. For most permitted development schemes in Egham it is worth securing. We prepare and submit it.

Does permitted development apply in conservation areas in Egham?

Rights are reduced in conservation areas and can be removed entirely by an Article 4 direction. We check the position for your address before assuming anything.
