There seems to be an endless amount of details online regarding applying for planning permission, but I can usually rely on PH to give straight to the point, honest answers and you seem to be a knowledgeable bunch!

Say I had some green belt land and wanted to build a residential property on it. The lad currently has no planning permission for a residential property.

What are the steps to acquiring planning permission?

Before sinking money into architects, is there a way to find out whether the land can be built on?

I will get in touch with local council to see if there are any plans.

Appreciate the above comments. A neighbour recently built a very large bungalow and garage on a similar plot less that 300m away, which I assume that they got planning permission for, but it was their land and they are a farmer!

A build thread would definitely be in order - PH loves a good build thread!
