1App logo

We encourage applicants to submit applications online using the apply link above. Alternatively, you can download the forms and submit them by post.

Online Applications service at the Planning Portal

Whilst you can still submit your applications on paper, there are distinct advantages to be gained by completing the form online and applying online.

Our E-forms (or online) mean it is quicker and easier for you to complete forms – and hopefully save you time by not having to visit us, or wait for a form to be posted to you. You can also attach drawings and other files. With our new system, don’t forget you can make payments online, as well as by cheque or phone

Paper application forms

If you need to apply for two consent types, e.g. planning permission and listed building consent, combined forms are available which include the questions for both application types. If you use one of these combined forms, even though you only have to complete one form, it will be treated as two applications and you will be advised of two application numbers, one for each type of consent.

To make sure that you provide the information necessary for your application to be processed efficiently, different forms and accompanying guidance notes and checklists, are provided for different types of application, these links take you to a page that includes details of what the application is for and how to use it:

Please see links below for further information and help or if you would like to obtain ready printed forms then please call the office number.
