WS Planning and Architecture have an excellent understanding of the Local Authority planning application process. Our team has assisted Councils with the determination of householder applications and their many complexities and site constraints including Green Belt developments, extensions and alterations to dwellings within Conservation Areas, works to Listed Buildings, proposals located within Flood Zones and sites with TPO’d trees on site within close proximity of the proposed development.

Our team at WS Heritage also act on behalf of Local Planning Authorities providing expert heritage advice aswell as handling planning applications and appeals. Our Heritage team provide the necessary early advice that can be so crucial in Heritage cases and also undertake Heritage Impact Assessments, Townscape & Character Appraisals, Historic Building Records and Archaeological Building Recording.
