Planning control or prior approval
Since March 2011 the demolition of virtually all buildings requires planning permission or prior approval. This is in conjunction with the notice of intended demolition under the Building Act 1984.
In the absence of an associated redevelopment scheme, owners/developers are advised to apply to the local planning authority for confirmation about whether prior approval is required.
For more information on planning control or prior approval, please email planning.dc@stockport.gov.uk.
