Knighton

Knighton (population 3,172) is a small market town as well as area in central Powys (previously Radnorshire), Wales, on the Teme and the England-- Wales boundary. A tiny part of the community, consisting of Knighton railway station, remains in Shropshire, England. This Anglo-Saxon negotiation later ended up being a Norman strengthened community. The town has a range of shops serving a large rural hinterland and using 18% of the active population and also is, after production (18.81%), the biggest employment field. Or else, and also in common with lots of towns, Knighton has little industry. A lot of youths leave after finishing their education and learning. Tourism is essential and also, subsequently, the location was struck hard by the foot and mouth epidemic of 2001. Although incomes are reduced and 20%+ of residences have no automobile, Knighton has an unemployment rate (2001) of simply 2.88%. Obligation for economic development lies with the Welsh Assembly Government. Knighton seclusion makes it an unlikely option for the commuter and also, consequently, the majority of the functioning population (69.45% in 2001) job within a 12 miles (19 km) Traveling to Workplace. The Welsh name, Tref-y-clawdd, implying "community on the dyke", was first recorded in 1262 and formally offered to the community in 1971. The name Knighton probably stems from the Old English words cniht (a soldier, individual follower, young man, servant, thane or freeman) and also tun (farm, settlement or homestead). Therefore it might have been founded through a grant of land to freemen.

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.
