Local context

Why Fulham needs a specialist

Fulham is Victorian bay-fronted terraces. The streetscape is dominated by victorian terraces, mansion blocks, which means design decisions — roofscape, rear glazing, side returns, mansards — must respect the period rhythm of the row. Hammersmith and Fulham planning (Hammersmith & Fulham Council) decides applications here. Article 4 removes PD for HMO conversions; restrictions on ground-floor shop-to-residential in certain streets.

Which postcode districts around Fulham do we cover for drawing package work?

Every Fulham postcode district we draw in, the stock that dominates it and the authority that validates a drawing package there. Fulham fees below are the statutory England rates for 2026, not drawing package estimates.

Which Fulham neighbourhoods suit a drawing package best?

Roof pitch, wall build-up and plot depth change every few Fulham streets, and each one changes what a drawing package can achieve at that address.

What local planning policy applies to a drawing package in Fulham?

Conservation areas covering Fulham: Hammersmith & Fulham Council runs 45, and Parsons Green, Walham Green, Hammersmith Grove are the ones Fulham owners meet most. A drawing package inside a Fulham conservation area loses permitted development, so the Fulham submission is a householder application at £258 decided in 8 weeks — not a £120 prior approval decided in 6 weeks. In Walham Green a drawing package is judged on the street elevation first.

Fulham and Article 4: Article 4 removes PD for HMO conversions; restrictions on ground-floor shop-to-residential in certain streets. A drawing package planned at a SW6 address is checked against that direction first; Hammersmith & Fulham Council publishes the Fulham extent, and the SW6 line rarely follows the Fulham boundary you would expect.

What Fulham is built from: Victorian and Edwardian terraces — particularly two-storey bay-fronted terraces south of the river in Fulham and Parsons Green; mansion blocks along main roads. Suburban-feel residential streets with strong conservation area coverage; well-established mansard precedents on many terraces. That mix decides the drawing package route in Fulham more than the postcode does. Our fixed fee for architectural drawings in Fulham starts at £840, against £1,750 for the Complete package that carries a Fulham scheme through Hammersmith & Fulham Council planning and building regulations together.
