    Hi. I'm just curious as to how far back I can view planning applications for a house. On the co.co. website the furthest back I can go is 20 years but without any plans or documents to view. Our house was built mid 70's. If I go into the co.co. offices will they have this info for a fee or where can I go if anywhere at all?

    they may have it archived/ or and on microfilm and will access for a fee.
    however it depends what you are after, the quality of the microfilms can be, as best brutal.
    equally the drawings etc even in paper form will be prtyy thin on info.

    so perhaps tell us what you need to/would like to know

    Hi. It actually has to do with a right of way. Behind us we own 13 acres of private woodland. Separating us and neighbours property is (was!) a right of way leading from the road to this woodland. A good few years before we moved in here my wife's uncle became ill and wasn't around for quite some time. In that time the right of way had gradually been fenced/hedged from the roadside and planted up with shrubbery within. We were informed by our neighbour shortly before we moved in that if we wanted it we would have to buy it! And to make matters worse all documentation relating to it was unfortunately lost in a fire! Problem was it was never registered to begin with and I'm just trying out my options here to see if it was ever on any of either our house plans or the neighbours plans. Thanks for any help.
