Does Mortlake planning policy restrict a planning drawing set?

Mortlake conservation designations: there are 72 across Richmond Council, Barnes Village, Ham Common, Richmond Green among them. Designation costs a Mortlake owner the permitted-development route: a planning drawing set then needs a £258 householder application over 8 weeks, in place of the £120 prior approval route that takes 6 weeks. Hampton Wick is the Mortlake designation that most often changes a planning drawing set design.

Article 4 and your Mortlake planning drawing set: Richmond Council has made no borough-wide direction, so permitted development for a planning drawing set in Mortlake generally survives outside Mortlake conservation areas and listed curtilages. A Lawful Development Certificate at £129 is how a SW14 owner records that a planning drawing set was lawful.

What happens if a Mortlake property sits on a boundary?

• Hounslow — the Hounslow boundary runs against Richmond upon Thames, so a planning drawing set a street from Mortlake is decided by Hounslow Council instead. Hounslow runs 30 conservation areas across W3 and its neighbours, which is why planning drawings priced for Mortlake are re-checked against Hounslow policy whenever the Mortlake address sits on that edge.
• Kingston upon Thames — the Kingston upon Thames boundary runs against Richmond upon Thames, so a planning drawing set a street from Mortlake is decided by Kingston Council instead. Kingston upon Thames runs 22 conservation areas across KT1 and its neighbours, which is why planning drawings priced for Mortlake are re-checked against Kingston upon Thames policy whenever the Mortlake address sits on that edge.
• Wandsworth — adjoining Mortlake, with 45 conservation areas centred on SW8. A planning drawing set on the far side of the Mortlake line is determined by Wandsworth Council, so the Mortlake quote for planning drawings is checked against Wandsworth guidance before it is issued.
• Hammersmith and Fulham — cross the Mortlake boundary and Hammersmith & Fulham Council takes the planning drawing set instead, applying 45 conservation areas of its own around W6. We re-price planning drawings at the Mortlake edge because Hammersmith and Fulham policy and Richmond upon Thames policy rarely align on planning drawing set depth.
