Is Laverstock covered by Wiltshire Council?

Yes. Laverstock falls under Wiltshire Council's planning authority. Planning applications are assessed by Wiltshire's planning officers, and the council handles building control. We work with Wiltshire Council regularly.

Are there restrictions on the Riverdown Park estate?

The Riverdown Park development may have conditions on the original planning permission that remove or restrict PD rights. Check your property's planning history before assuming PD applies. We verify this as part of our assessment.
