RCC have a great track record of success for annex proposals, whether they be new building or conversion planning applications or certificate of lawfulness applications for units that are classed as caravans.

RCC put together are usual robust case and we were delighted when the council agreed with our case and issued the certificate of lawfulness confirming that it did not require planning permission.
