The Knaresborough brief
For a Knaresborough extension or renovation, record the relationship between the house, road and garden before settling the design. A tight or sloping plot can affect material handling and finished levels. A village site around Scotton or Goldsborough should be assessed on its own access and planning history.
Preparation guidance, not a survey of your property. The location photograph shows the area; it is not evidence of work by ATR.
HG5 / 01
Measure the delivery and working space
Bring to the conversationA dimensioned access plan and temporary storage layout.
Why this matters
Show the route from unloading to the building, including changes in level and shared passages. Identify where material can wait without blocking access that the household or neighbours still need.
HG5 / 02
Review the site’s visible and below-ground constraints
Bring to the conversationExisting elevations, a level survey and available drainage information.
Why this matters
Check applicable heritage information for external changes, and gather levels and drainage records for the new footprint. Use area flood information where relevant without treating it as an individual property assessment.
The address matters
