To increase the height of a section of existing boundary wall. Height will increase from 1 metre to no more than 2 metres. The work will be to erect a standard wooden feather edge style fence on top of an existing block wall in order to increase privacy, security and to discourage litter being thrown into private area. In considering our plan we have only suggested the fencing long enough to facilitate the privacy and security desired. Thereby, not infringing on any visibility issues regarding the junction in the front of the property

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 1a is modelled from its 120 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in SA4 0UZ. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 2 sales are recorded for 1a. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 1a was lodged in July 2021 at band D and is valid until July 2031. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 1a. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. Schools and stops are measured in a straight line from SA4 0UZ.
- Council tax band
- 1a is in council tax band D. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
