Request local development pre-application advice
Before applying for planning permission, you can use this form to request pre-application advice on your local development proposal.
In order to complete the form you will need to upload some supporting information.
Essential:
- A completed local development pre-application form
- A clear description of the proposed development
- The address of the application site

- Proposed site layout plan which outlines the application site in red, including a north point (dimensions to be shown or to scale, preferably at 1:500 or 1:200)
- North point
- Include access to the public road
The more details submitted the more detailed a response we can provide so there is also a desirable list which would be useful but we would not invalidate an enquiry to obtain these.
Desirable:
- An ordnance survey based location plan which outlines the application site in red (scale preferable to 1:2500 or 1:1250) and additional land owned in blue
- Proposed development layout plan and site sections
- Elevational drawings
- Drainage provision (if applicable)
- Photographs of the site
