Brookmans Park

Construction company
in Brookmans Park.

Brookmans Park is a Specified Settlement in the Welwyn Hatfield plan. That is a precise planning term, and it decides what you can build.

Why Skylon

The cheapest mistake in construction is the one you catch before you build.

Brookmans Park and Little Heath sit under Welwyn Hatfield, a different authority from Hertsmere and St Albans, with different tests. We price against the council that will actually decide.

Welwyn Hatfield Borough Council is the planning authority. We price and programme against the authority that will actually decide your application, and we say what is not possible before you have paid for a design that cannot be built.

Building in Brookmans Park

A Specified Settlement inside the Green Belt

  • Around 77 percent of Welwyn Hatfield is Metropolitan Green Belt. Brookmans Park is an island of permitted development inside it, and the boundary is defended hard. Recent Green Belt appeals in the village have been dismissed.
  • Specified Settlement status. Development is limited to what is compatible with maintaining and enhancing village character and holding the Green Belt boundary. That is the test your application is measured against.
  • Character is the argument. Large plots, generous frontages and mature landscaping define the village. Massing and materials decide applications here more often than policy does.
  • We are 15 minutes away. Our office at Tyttenhanger House is a short run from Brookmans Park, which keeps our site management close and our response times short.
