Sign shop planning

[Colin Crabb]

It will come under ‘Warehouses & Industrial Buildings’ if you looking for planning permission to build a new sign shop.

Hi thanks for the reply, sorry maybe not clear, if I were to take over a small unit that has B1 planning and was used as a similar use would B1 cover this use as a sign maker or printer

Part B
B1 Business – Offices (other than those that fall within A2), research and development of products and processes, light industry appropriate in a residential area.

B2 General industrial – Use for industrial process other than one falling within class B1 (excluding incineration purposes, chemical treatment or landfill or hazardous waste).

B8 Storage or distribution – This class includes open air storage.

I would guess B1, or B2 would be sufficient. I’ve no idea what our unit, I never bothered to check :blushing:

Thanks David, I would think B1 is more than fine but did want some feed back for the boards, the current use is nearly the same as mine and the unit is classed as B1 so could work, thanks
