Party walls in Preston

Preston is largely Victorian and Edwardian terraces close to the centre, with interwar semis further out and newer estates around the edges. The Winckley Square and Avenham areas are conservation areas with Georgian and Victorian townhouses, where changes to façades and rooflines may need extra permission. Long runs of terraced housing mean shared walls are the norm, so rear extensions, dormers and loft conversions often involve a neighbour. Where an excavation is planned close to an adjoining property, notices under the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 may also be needed.
