Pre-application planning advice and charges

Drains and archaeological advice

We're more likely to accept your application if you plan on including sustainable drains in your development.

The Flood Hub has created some pre-application advice about sustainable drains.

Our archaeological interests' advice includes information on how to obtain pre-application advice from the Greater Manchester Advisory Service.

You'll need to get their advice if there are, or you think there might be, archaeological interests on your development site.
