Do you need planning permission for a bungalow rear extension in Tewkesbury?

Whether your bungalow rear extension in Tewkesbury needs a planning application depends on its size, your house and any local restrictions.

Under England's householder permitted development rules you can usually add 3 metres at the back of an attached house, or 4 metres on a detached house, without a planning application, as long as the extension stays under 4 metres high and its eaves stay under 3 metres where it is within 2 metres of a boundary.

If 3 or 4 metres is not enough, England's prior approval route allows 6 metres on a terraced or semi-detached house and 8 metres on a detached house for a single-storey rear extension. Neighbours are consulted, the council decides within 42 days, and the fee is £249, rising to £310 from 8 December 2026.

Conservation areas, National Parks, National Landscapes and the Broads restrict permitted development, and listed buildings always need listed building consent. Before any drawing we look up the property's history with the council, because earlier extensions and removed rights change the answer.

What are homes in Tewkesbury like to extend?

Stone-built and rendered houses are common around Tewkesbury, so matching the walling is a design decision in its own right: natural stone, reconstituted stone or a render finish across old and new.
