Removal of existing ground floor extension (pantry & attached WC (both derelict)).

Construction of extension, consisting of kitchen (ground floor) and bedroom and bathroom (upstairs).
In existing ground floor area, replace staircase, and construction of WC.

ring your local council ask for the 'validation officer' in the planning department

from what you said
_______
I (your name) seek permission for demoition of existing extension and permission for construction of two storey extension, installation of waste water treatment system and associated site works

at (your location)
________

you need to do a site assessment prior to submitting, see list of engs on local council website

It's an existing townhouse, so I'll use the existing connection to the water/sewage system.
Existing extension is tiny; my guess is it didn't have planning in the first place.

Planning forms just mention 6 of everything - no mention of site assessment.
Is that really something I would need?

Thanks

1. you left that out of your early post
2. you are demolishing, therefore you tell the planners
3. not needed its a rural thing

don't forget to tick both demolition and new extension on the application form & check fees for demolition

I'm not sure there's any tick boxes for demolition on the planning form:

Just found out from the planning guidelines that I only need to apply for demolition planning if the area is over 40 sqm, which it isn't in my case thankfully.
