Listed Building Control and Consent Requirements

Once a building is listed, Article 44 of the Planning (NI) Order requires consent for demolition and any works of alteration or extension affecting its character as a building of special architectural or historic interest. It is a criminal offence to carry out such works without consent, and planning permission may also be required if the works constitute development.

Once a building is listed, Article 44 of the Planning (NI) Order provides that consent is required for its demolition and for any works of alteration or extension in any manner which would affect its character as a building of special architectural or historic interest. This is referred to as "listed building consent" and it is a criminal offence to carry out such works without consent. Planning permission is also required in addition to listed building consent if the works involve "development". In such cases, it will generally be preferable if both applications are considered concurrently.
