construction activity.
·
Copies* of existing and proposed floor plans at a scale of not less
than 1:100 and the position of any sections.
·
Design and Access statement. (Applications for internal works only
do not require an access element to the statement).
·
copies of a reasoned justification of the proposals. This will
analyse the significance of archaeology, history and character of the
building/structure. It will set out the principles of and justification for the
proposed works and their impact and an analysis of the character and appearance
of the conservation area. You may need to submit a structural survey or other
engineering details. (This can be part of the Design & Access statement).
·
copies of a description of works, detailing any alterations to the
listed building including materials, finishes and service routes and details.

building and its setting and/or the particular section of the building affected
by the proposals.
·
4 copies of detail plans to show new doors, windows, etc,
accurately drawn at a scale of not less than 1:20. You can provide details at
1:1 where appropriate.
Notes about drawings for
·
You should group drawings into complete sets. All drawings must be
dated, labelled, numbered and to a metric scale.
·
You must submit comparable drawings for the existing and proposed.
·
Where existing buildings or walls are to be demolished (in whole or
part) you should clearly annotate these and it is useful if you show them
hatched.
·
The drawings submitted should show details of the existing
building(s) as well as those for the proposed development.
·
You must show new buildings/extensions in context with adjacent buildings
including windows and those properties outside the application site. Street
scenes are very helpful. You must show all sides of the proposal.
·
On sloping sites full information concerning alterations to levels
and the relative levels between existing and proposed buildings (in the form of
contours, spot levels, long or cross sections as appropriate).
·
Applications for new shopfronts must show the whole elevation above
the shopfront and also show neighbouring buildings for context.
·
It is useful if you annotate your drawings to show existing
finishes, such as lath and plaster and/or plasterboard. Annotations “to match
existing” for proposed finishes are ambiguous and are best avoided.
·
You may have to provide extra sets of drawings for applications
involving demolition. This is to allow the required consultation with relevant
additional consultees.
You will require an application for Conservation
Area Consent if you wish to demolish all or a substantial part of a non-listed
building or structure within a Conservation Area.
