Householder Planning Application forms

These forms are to be used for works to individual houses, bungalows and flats.

Please make sure you have checked our validation checklist (National and Local Requirements) below before submitting your application. If you do not send all the information we need your application will be deemed invalid.

There are three versions of the Householder form which can be accessed from the links below along with other guidance:

HOT - Householder Application for Planning Permission for works or extension to a dwelling

It should not be used if any new dwellings (including the division of a single dwelling into two or more flats) or any business use is involved or if you seek to extend your garden boundaries by taking additional land.

If the application involves any extension or alteration to a listed building, or demolition within a conservation area, a separate application for listed building or conservation area consent on a dual form may be required as below.
