Have your full postcode ready
If you searched for a full KT3 postcode, the postcode district matters less than the council that holds your address, which for New Malden is Kingston upon Thames. The decision figures below are Kingston's borough numbers.
Article 4 directions near KT3
Our analysis of the MHCLG Planning Data Platform article-4-direction-area dataset (retrieved 15 Oct 2026) counts 14 live register rows near the centre of the KT3 postcode district. All 14 remove permitted development rights for turning commercial, business and service premises into homes, so none of them limits house extensions. The register is incomplete, so treat 14 as a lower bound, not proof of coverage.
A direction that removes householder rights would turn a small project into a full application, so check the council's own list for your address. Our guide to article 4 directions explains how to check.
Our analysis of the MHCLG Planning Data Platform conservation-area dataset (snapshot retrieved 14 Aug 2026) finds 28 conservation-area entries for Kingston on the national register.
