A planning permission drawings package in Hammersmith and Fulham, where the stock is largely Victorian and Edwardian terraces — particularly two-storey bay-fronted terraces south of the river in Fulham and Parsons Green; mansion blocks along main roads, is the full measured-survey-to-submission drawing set London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham needs in order to determine an application: existing and proposed plans, elevations and sections at 1:100 and 1:50, a location and site plan, and the supporting statements the case officer asks for.
Prepared and reviewed by the chartered technologist team at Architectural Drawings London — MCIAT chartered, £2m PI insured.Last reviewed 2026-08-03.
Housing stock in Hammersmith and Fulham: Victorian and Edwardian terraces — particularly two-storey bay-fronted terraces south of the river in Fulham and Parsons Green; mansion blocks along main roads.
Character: Suburban-feel residential streets with strong conservation area coverage; well-established mansard precedents on many terraces.
Article 4: Article 4 removes PD for HMO conversions; restrictions on ground-floor shop-to-residential in certain streets.
A chartered technologist attends the property and laser-measures every room, opening and level. On a typical terraced house that takes between 60 and 90 minutes.
Everything is drafted in Revit or AutoCAD at 1:50 or 1:100, annotated to the level a validation officer expects, and issued as a council-ready set.
Unlimited revisions until you approve. Shadow studies for committee-sensitive applications.
Site location plan, block plan, Design & Access Statement where required.
We lodge the application on the planning portal and pay the statutory fee to the council direct, so nothing sits waiting on you to forward a payment.
Every officer query, consultation response and amendment handled through to determination.
Single planning or regs submission.
Planning + building regs + structural.
Listed, conservation, complex sites.
Move the controls for an indicative figure. It anchors your budget — it is not a quote. Every project is priced after a free survey.
Build costs are separate and quoted by your contractor. See our published fees.
Every district we draw in here, what the housing is made of in each, and which authority takes the application from that address. Charges listed are 2026 statutory England fees and have nothing to do with ours.
| Postcode | Area | Dominant stock | What it means for a planning drawing set |
|---|---|---|---|
| SW6 | Fulham / Parsons Green | Victorian terraces, mansion blocks | SW6 covers Fulham and Parsons Green alone, and its case officers work to the conservation boundaries drawn across that district. |
| W6 | Hammersmith / Brackenbury Village | Victorian terraces, mansion blocks | W6 covering Hammersmith and Brackenbury Village sits wholly inside the borough and is determined under its own Local Plan policies. |
| W12 | Shepherd's Bush / White City | Victorian and Edwardian terraces | Shepherd's Bush and White City fall entirely within W12, so this council validates every drawing set that comes from there. |
| W14 | West Kensington / Barons Court | Victorian and Edwardian villas | W14 through West Kensington and Barons Court is shared with Kensington and Chelsea, so both policies maps get checked before drawings go in. |
| SW10 | West Brompton / World's End | Georgian and Victorian terraces, listed buildings | SW10 across West Brompton and World's End crosses into Kensington and Chelsea, where the plot rather than the postcode names the authority. |
Pitch, what a wall is built from, how deep the garden runs: those differ street to street in this borough, and taken together they cap what any drawing set can sensibly propose.
How designation changes a Hammersmith and Fulham planning drawing set: Hammersmith & Fulham Council maintains 45 conservation areas, including Parsons Green, Walham Green, Hammersmith Grove. Inside any of them a Hammersmith and Fulham planning drawing set cannot rely on permitted development, and the route becomes a £548 householder application determined in 8 weeks rather than a £249 prior approval in 6 weeks. Brackenbury Village sets the tone for Hammersmith and Fulham casework.
Hammersmith and Fulham and Article 4: Article 4 removes PD for HMO conversions; restrictions on ground-floor shop-to-residential in certain streets. A planning drawing set planned at a SW6 address is checked against that direction first; Hammersmith & Fulham Council publishes the Hammersmith and Fulham extent, and the SW6 line rarely follows the Hammersmith and Fulham boundary you would expect.
The stock, and what lies under it: Victorian and Edwardian terraces dominate, two-storey bay-fronted pairs south towards Fulham and Parsons Green, mansion blocks lining the arterial roads; 48.1% of dwellings predate 1900, measured at 31 March 2025 (VOA CTSOP4.1). Conservation area coverage is heavy and mansard precedent is well established on many terraces. One thing no postcode will tell you: Flood Zone 3 covers 51.9% of the land here (Environment Agency), and that mapping is what decides whether a Flood Risk Assessment must accompany the application — a mapping question, not a statement about your house. A householder application costs £548 to lodge with this council, which then has eight weeks to reach a decision.

Appeals over new homes go better here than across most of London: of 154 new-dwelling appeals decided between 2016 and 2026, 65 were allowed and 89 dismissed, a success rate of 42.2% where the city figure is 22.4%. Read that carefully. Every one of them is a refusal or a non-determination somebody chose to fight, never the far larger number of schemes this council simply granted, and conversions, infills and small developments are the riskiest category to carry through.
Median time to decide those appeals was 102 days from the day each one was lodged, and that sits on top of the months the council had already spent. 94.2% ran on written representations, meaning an inspector formed a view from paperwork alone: the drawings, the statement of case and the officer's report.
Drawn from 154 appeals on new-dwelling schemes decided in this borough. Data: Planning Inspectorate casework, licensed OGL v3.0.
The questions Hammersmith and Fulham owners ask us most often about planning drawings, answered using the borough's own numbers.
Start a free quote →Our Hammersmith and Fulham planning fee is fixed before we start and depends on the route — a householder application is the simplest, while major works, change of use and flat conversions carry more drawings and supporting documents. Hammersmith & Fulham Council also charges its own statutory application fee on top, set nationally. See our fees for current figures.
Once validated, Hammersmith & Fulham Council aims to decide householder applications within 8 weeks and major applications within 13 weeks — consistent with statutory targets. Our typical end-to-end timeline from instruction to submission is 3–4 weeks.
Yes — Hammersmith and Fulham has Article 4 Directions in force. Article 4 removes PD for HMO conversions; restrictions on ground-floor shop-to-residential in certain streets. Article 4 removes specific permitted development rights that would otherwise apply, meaning full planning permission is required where PD would normally be sufficient. We check Article 4 status for your specific property before quoting.
There are 45 designated areas in the borough, Hammersmith Grove, Brackenbury Village and the Fulham Palace Road group among them. An application inside one is read against that area's appraisal, and it will normally need a heritage statement alongside the drawings.
For householder work a chartered technologist gets to the same place a planning consultant would, usually for less money, because it is the drawings that make the argument here rather than advocacy. What that buys is a submission that survives to a decision. Of the 4,313 applications this council received across the twelve quarters to March 2026, 607 were withdrawn before any decision was issued — 14.1%, where the 33 boroughs pooled record 6.9% (MHCLG planning statistics, retrieved 1 September 2026). A withdrawal is a fee and a season gone.
