Hi all. Does anyone know if I need planning to add a window into ground floor gable wall of my my house? Its a west facing gable and would greatly improve the natural light in the room if I added a window. There are no houses near that side of the house.
 
If it's more than 1m from a boundary you should be fine, but it's best practice to seek a Section 5 declaration from the local authority so you have evidence of compliance should you ever go to sell. Each local authority will have a section similar to that linked there.
