Does Hounslow planning policy restrict a drawing package?

Conservation areas covering Hounslow: Hounslow Council runs 30, and Old Isleworth, Brentford, Chiswick are the ones Hounslow owners meet most. A drawing package inside a Hounslow conservation area loses permitted development, so the Hounslow submission is a householder application at £548 decided in 8 weeks — not a £249 prior approval decided in 6 weeks. In Old Isleworth a drawing package is judged on the street elevation first.

Article 4 and your Hounslow drawing package: Hounslow Council has made no borough-wide direction, so permitted development for a drawing package in Hounslow generally survives outside Hounslow conservation areas and listed curtilages. A Lawful Development Certificate at £274 is how a W4 owner records that a drawing package was lawful.

What Hounslow is built from: Edwardian villas in Chiswick and Turnham Green; Georgian in Isleworth; 1930s semi-detached in Hounslow and Feltham; riverside new-build in Brentford. Chiswick is one of west London's most conservation-controlled areas; outer Hounslow is permissive suburban. That mix decides the drawing package route in Hounslow more than the postcode does.
