Use Classes Order Guide in Wales

Lichfields’ Use Classes Order Guide summarises, in an easy-to-use chart, all the use classes in Wales and how it is possible to change from one use to another without having to apply for planning permission. The table also explains the sui generis uses that lie outside the Use Classes Order. The guide is intended to be used as general guidance only and reference must be made to the Town and Country Planning (Use Classes) Order 1987 as amended and the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) Order 1995 as amended, including the insertion of a new use class C4 (houses in multiple occupation), that is now in force. Please contact us if you wish to discuss the updated version of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) Order that is in force at present.
