Dunmow

Great Dunmow is a historical market town as well as civil parish in the Uttlesford area of Essex, England. It is situated on the north of the A120 road, roughly midway between Bishop's Stortford and also Braintree, 6 miles east of London Stansted Airport. Originally the site of a Roman negotiation on Stane Street, the community grew throughout the Middle Ages. Lots of structures make it through from this period, consisting of a sixteenth-century city center. Dunmow suggests "Meadow on the Hill". [4] The settlement was otherwise described as Dunmow Magna, Much Dunmow, or many commonly Great Dunmow. Great Dunmow borders the former estate of Easton Lodge in the neighbouring parish of Little Easton, a country house belonging to the Maynard family members. The most remarkable participant, Frances Maynard, became the Countess of Warwick as well as later on a girlfriend of King Edward VII. As the Prince of Wales he was reportedly a regular site visitor to the Estate, travelling from London on the train to Easton Lodge train station. The initials "CW" are visible on a variety of Victorian period residential or commercial properties in Great Dunmow. Called Daisy Greville, Countess of Warwick she was a generous philanthropist in the regional community. Since 2018, Robert Nicholson is Emeritus Mayor of Great Dunmow.

FAQs

What kinds of loft conversion are there?

There’s a huge range of different types of loft conversions. The most common are dormer and skylight or Velux conversions. There are also hip to gable and mansard conversions. The type of loft conversion that’s most suitable for your property will depend on the style of roof and the size of your loft.

do you need planning permission for a loft conversion?

Typically, loft conversions do not require planning permission except in certain situations. They’re usually covered under what’s known as Permitted Development. Certain building works like loft conversion, rear extension and conservatories are granted planning permission by local authorities. Permitted Development, however, gives you a free range to improve your home without having any issues from the councils or regulations. Before your planned loft conversion can be covered under Permitted Development, there are some certain criteria that must be met. This criteria includes the following:

✓ The extension must not go beyond the existing slope of the roof at the front of the house.

✓ The loft space converted must not go beyond 40 cubic metres in a terraced house.

✓ The roof’s height must not be increased by the extension.

✓ The loft space converted must not reach beyond 50 cubic metres in a detached or semi detached house.

✓ The plan for the extension mustn’t involve structures like balconies, verandas or anything other structures of this nature.

✓ The roof extension should be positioned as far back as possible or at least 20cm from the existing eaves.

✓ The side that faces the window openings should be at least 1.7m beyond the floor and the windows should also be obscured.

✓ The roof extension must not overhang the existing roof or wall of the house.

✓ The materials that are to be used must be similar or the same to the materials that has already been used on the house’s exterior.

However, you should bear in mind that there are some properties that are exempt from Permitted Development. Examples of these type of properties include conservation areas, Areas Of Outstanding Natural Beauty and World Heritage sites. Permitted Development does not also provide coverage for listed buildings.

How long will a loft conversion take?

It depends on the style and size of the conversion, but in general, a loft conversion will take between 1-2 months. A loft conversion is a substantial building project, and plans will need to be drawn up. This may add to the time it takes to complete your loft conversion.

Will I need planning permission to convert my loft?

Planning permission is not normally needed for a loft conversion as they are covered by permitted development rights. A conversion company will tell you if you do and help you with this. For more information, see our article about planning permission.
