Residential Extensions SPD

The Residential Extensions Supplementary Planning Document (SPD) has been prepared by Burnley Council as part of its planning policy framework. It was adopted by the Council on 26 October 2022.

This SPD provides detailed guidance on the application of the Local Plan policies in respect of residential alterations and extensions, in particular Policies HS5 and SP5. It includes photographs and illustrations. As well as being a material consideration in the determination of relevant planning applications, it will also be a useful guide to those planning a residential extension that falls within permitted development rights.

The SPD is available to download below.
