Prior Approval in
Broseley
Not every Broseley project needs a full planning application, and not every project qualifies for permitted development either. Prior approval sits in between, a faster route with real legal deadlines, for specific categories like larger rear extensions and certain building conversions.
Get StartedThe Statutory Deadline Explained For Broseley
Picking the wrong path for a Broseley project, treating something as needing full planning permission when prior approval genuinely fits, or vice versa, wastes real time and real money. Nailing the classification early matters more than most people expect.
Each prior approval category in Broseley carries its own conditions and its own statutory deadline, generally 42 or 56 days depending on which one applies, with the council’s review confined to specific matters set out in legislation rather than a broad planning assessment.
We confirm which category your Broseley project genuinely falls under before preparing anything, since submitting the wrong type of application wastes both time and the fee involved.

How We Help in Broseley
Every Broseley project starts with confirming which prior approval category genuinely applies, and whether the specific conditions attached to that category are actually met.
From there we prepare a focused submission covering exactly what the council’s entitled to assess, nothing padded out with irrelevant detail that slows things down.
Once submitted, we track the statutory deadline for your Broseley project closely, since missing council communication near that date can genuinely matter.
The Careful Approach To Broseley Prior Approval
We’d rather confirm honestly that your Broseley project doesn’t qualify for prior approval than submit something destined to fail on a technicality.
Prior approval’s speed only helps if the submission’s actually right the first time, so we focus on getting the Broseley classification and conditions correct upfront.
Where a Broseley project sits right on the edge of prior approval eligibility, we lay out the genuine risk plainly before you commit to this route.
Not sure whether your project needs house extension planning permission instead? We check that too, before recommending prior approval as the route.
