Applications for listed building consent or planning permission are made to the relevant local authority. They can be made online through the national Planning Portal or in paper directly to the local planning authority. An application will normally be allocated to a planning case officer who will consult the conservation officer (and the national amenity societies in more significant cases) before making a recommendation to either permit of refuse consent.
Securing listed building consent is not always a straightforward process, but according to Historic England, almost 90% of listed consent applications are approved. It is, however, worth noting that many proposed listed building alterations do not make it to the formal application stage and some are withdrawn prior to determination.
Where consent is refused, or where it is granted subject to conditions which are considered to be unnecessary or unreasonable, the applicant has the right of appeal to the Secretary of State.
