Heritage

Listed buildings and scheduled monuments in Wales are managed with Cadw and the council's conservation officers.

Awkward details we deal with

We check the deeds and the public rights of way map before pricing.

Questions from landowners near Hawarden

Is infill easier to get permission for?

Often, because it continues the existing street pattern. Policy varies by council, especially in villages.

How wide does an infill plot need to be?

There's no fixed width. It depends on the house type, the street and whether parking is needed at the front.

Can you check the conservation area rules for me?

Yes. We look at the council's conservation area appraisal as part of our assessment.

Do you cover the villages around Hawarden?

Yes. Villages between Hawarden, Deeside and Buckley often have the kind of edge-of-settlement land we're looking for.
