What changes about a drawing package in each part of Putney?

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

How do conservation areas and Article 4 affect a drawing package in Putney?

Conservation areas covering Putney: Wandsworth Council runs 45, and Magdalen Park, Nightingale Triangle, Wandsworth Common are the ones Putney owners meet most. A drawing package inside a Putney conservation area loses permitted development, so the Putney submission is a householder application at £258 decided in 8 weeks — not a £120 prior approval decided in 6 weeks. In Tonsley a drawing package is judged on the street elevation first.

Article 4 and your Putney drawing package: Article 4 for HMO conversions covering the whole borough. At a SW15 address that matters twice over, because Wandsworth Council applies the direction unevenly across Putney — we read the Putney policies map for the exact SW15 address before quoting architectural drawings.
