Today, Corbil Planning turns 10 years old, and that's not some old April fools day joke! A note on our blog from James to celebrate the day..

Corbil Planning celebrates 10 years today!

Today marks the 10 year anniversary of Corbil Planning Ltd. Looking back, it was no joke starting a new company on April fools day back in 2016, especially considering the circumstances we were in at the time. Jemma and I had both resigned from our jobs. We had just got our first mortgage together a...

Check out the article on our website for more details, and if you are considering hotel / short-stay accommodation, feel free to drop us a line...

Forthcoming changes to the appeal system place greater emphasis on the need for comprehensive planning application submissions, as appellants lose the right to defend their case with an appeal statement or the submission of new evidence.

New changes to appeal procedure

Forthcoming changes to the planning appeal system will mean that any planning application submitted on or after 01 April 2026, and which proceeds to a written representation format of appeal, will be subject to new rules that prohibit the submission of additional evidence at the appeal stage. This e...

With so much now being possible using permitted development rights, and the government rapidly easing restrictions on grey belt land, we think it's about time for a change to the highly restrictive 'extensions and additions' policy in the Green Belt. A recent case study explains why:

Is it time to relax more Green Belt policy?

This week, we were delighted to secure a PA upward extension (new first floor) as well as a larger rear extension on this property near Addlestone in Surrey. The property is located within the Green Belt. Through the use of Permitted Development (PDR) we have secured an uplift of 180% in GIA and 135...

The Times described the new Powdermills Hotel as 'the most stylish place to stay in East Sussex'. We certainly think so too. Corbil Planning worked with Crafted, and a great professional team, to put in place a masterplan and series of planning permissions and listed building consents to renovate this grade II listed building and it's beautiful estate within the High Weald National Landscape to become a hotel destination for pure leisure and relaxation in its natural surroundings. The development includes much needed renovation works, a new wellness and leisure facilities, an increase in keys, and substantial enhancements to nature and biodiversity.

Really looking forward to be attending the National Development Summit on Saturday, 7th February.

More than pleased to be asked to speak on the latest planning policy updates (no surprises what might be in store this year!)
