Use this page to start with a postcode search, then open the official council record for the decision notice, drawings, consultation deadline and any later conditions.

Check approved drawings

Match drawing numbers and revision letters before relying on a plan.

Read conditions

Find conditions that control privacy, noise, drainage, materials or timing.

Write a useful objection

Keep comments factual, specific and tied to material planning issues.
