Block paving in Llandrindod Wells
Llandrindod Wells is a smaller town, and many of its homes have more frontage to work with than city houses, which leaves room for borders and planting.
Wales is wetter than most of England, and new front paving has to be permeable or drain within the property, so drainage is designed in from the start.
Llandrindod Wells postcodes we cover include LD1, LD2 and LD6.
Front drive rules in Llandrindod Wells
Llandrindod Wells is in Wales:
In Wales, any new or replacement hard surface at the front of a house should be permeable or drain to a permeable area within the property to avoid needing planning permission. Unlike England, there is no 5 m² allowance for new paving; only repairs of up to 5 m² of existing surface are exempt.
Since January 2019, construction work covering 100 m² or more with drainage implications, including drives and patios, needs approval from the local SuDS Approving Body (SAB) before work starts, even where planning permission is not needed.
A dropped kerb needs your council's approval as highway authority, and a new access onto a classified road needs planning permission.
General guidance, not legal advice. Your survey confirms what applies to your home. See the planning guide.
