Satellite Dishes - Permission to Install

Planning permission will generally be required to install a satellite dish, if:

•  the property is listed;
• is within a conservation area;
• is a flat;
• or the dish would be facing the road.

Within conservation areas, planning permission is required to install a dish on any part of a dwelling house which faces onto a road. The installation of a dish on any other building (including flatted properties) within a conservation area, normally requires planning permission.

Outwith conservation areas planning permission may be required to install a dish depending on size, location and number of dishes proposed. Listed building consent will normally be required to install a dish on a listed building.
