Planning Drawings in Hammersmith W6
Fixed-fee, MCIAT-chartered planning drawings for Hammersmith (W6) homeowners — London Borough of Hammersmith & Fulham validation and local constraints handled from the start.
Hammersmith (W6) runs from the tight Victorian grid of Brackenbury Village up to the larger houses around Brook Green, and side-return and loft projects are the staple here. The Bradmore conservation area covers most of Brackenbury's streets, so what reads as a routine extension a few roads away is a conservation-area application within its boundary.
Brook Green adds a second, distinct context of larger period houses and stucco frontages under their own conservation-area control. We check which grid a Hammersmith property sits in — and where its boundary falls — before recommending a route, and prepare the drawings to the borough's design and validation standards.
Planning in Hammersmith (W6): what to know before you apply
W6 sits across the Bradmore and Brook Green conservation areas, which cover much of the residential grid and remove permitted development rights on many streets, so extensions and loft conversions are assessed against the borough's conservation guidance. London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham does not publish an Article 4 schedule to the national open-data register, so an empty entry there is not evidence of absence — we confirm the current directions and conservation boundary with the council before advising.
Typical Hammersmith housing stock
Tight grids of two- and three-storey Victorian terraces around Brackenbury Village, larger stucco-fronted and villa houses toward Brook Green, and Edwardian red-brick mansion flats on the main approaches.

How are planning drawings different from building regulations drawings?
Planning drawings show what the building will look like and how it sits in its context. Building regulations drawings show how it will be built safely — structure, insulation, fire escape and drainage. Most projects need both; our Complete package covers the two together with structural calculations coordinated in-house.
| Drawing | Typical scale | What it shows |
|---|---|---|
| Site location plan | 1:1250 | The property in its street context, site edged red |
| Block plan | 1:500 | The building's footprint and position in the plot |
| Floor plans (existing & proposed) | 1:100 / 1:50 | Room layout, walls, openings and the proposed changes |
| Elevations (existing & proposed) | 1:100 / 1:50 | Each face of the building and how it changes |
| Sections | 1:100 / 1:50 | A cut through showing heights, levels and roof form |
