Block paving in Bloxwich

Bloxwich is a sizeable town with a mix of semis, terraces and newer estates, and many drives here were first laid decades ago.

Clay ground is widespread in the West Midlands, so the sub-base depth and drainage are checked on every survey.

Front drive rules in Bloxwich

Bloxwich is in England:

In England, paving in front of the house that covers more than 5 m² needs planning permission unless it is permeable or drains to a lawn, border or soakaway inside your boundary. Permeable block paving, or standard blocks laid to fall onto a planted strip, avoid the need for permission in most cases.

Flats and maisonettes, listed buildings, and homes covered by an Article 4 direction can have tighter rules, and conservation areas, National Parks and National Landscapes restrict some permitted development.

A dropped kerb needs your local highway authority's approval (usually the county, unitary, metropolitan or London borough council), and a new access onto an A, B or C classified road also needs planning permission.

General guidance, not legal advice. Your survey confirms what applies to your home. See the planning guide.
