Welcome to the  Brockley Society

Planning

Planning

Before you start making decisions on any changes you would like to make to your property, we strongly advise that you look at the Council's guidelines for preserving the Brockley Conservation Area.  These will give you a good idea of what is and isn't acceptable development.

If you would like to object to plans for unsympathetic or inappropriate development,  please let us know. The more objections the council receives, the more likely the development is to be questioned.

Every other week, the Brockley Society joins the other local conservation societies at the Council's  Amenity Panel Meeting. Here we raise formal objections, ask questions and give our input on local development.  These meetings help to determine whether planning applications are approved or go on to be raised at the public planning meetings.  The public meetings give applicants and objectors a chance to have their say to enable the Council to reach a decision. 

For further guidance on planning issues, including making an application, raising an objection, or the processes involved, contact Danny on 07904 508 678
