Application forms and guidance notes

Planning Portal

You can apply for Planning Permission online through the Planning Portal using the button above. You will need to register. 

Every planning application needs a site location plan and block plan showing the location and boundaries of the site you are planning to work on.
The Planning Portal has produced a best practice guide called Maps, Plans and Planning Applications: What to submit (.pdf) which you may find useful. 

You can use the Planning Portal's 'Buy a Plan' service to ensure that you meet the requirements, whether you are a planning professional or first-time applicant.

Alternatively, you can print out the relevant Application Form(s) and view Guidance notes to complete them from the Planning Portal
