The Bierley brief
For work around East Bowling or Dudley Hill, establish whether the property shares its entrance, yard or services with another occupier. A house renovation and a workshop alteration need different arrangements. For a village property around Tong, check its own setting rather than applying an urban-site specification.
Preparation guidance, not a survey of your property. The location photograph shows the area; it is not evidence of work by ATR.
BD4 / 01
Define the work boundary
Bring to the conversationA scope plan identifying other occupiers and shared facilities.
Why this matters
Mark which rooms, yards and services are included and which must remain operational. Record any shared route that the project relies on before agreeing where materials or waste containers can stand.
BD4 / 02
Clarify exterior changes early
Bring to the conversationElevations and a list of all externally visible changes.
Why this matters
If openings, cladding or roofs will change, show the existing and proposed elevations and check the council information for that address. An internal fit-out brief can otherwise conceal external decisions that need separate consideration.
The address matters

Search for an individual listed building. This is a different check from whether it stands in a conservation area.
