Read now · Oldest record checked 17 June 2026.

An application submitted in the last week or two may not be here yet — the council publishes it first, and this page reads a copy of the register afterwards.

This window holds more applications than the page shows. The council’s register has the full list.

This page is a reader, not the register

These applications are read from PlanIt, an independent service that copies each council’s published register. Guildford Borough Council’s own register is the authoritative record for status, dates, documents and deadlines — check it before you act on anything here.

Guildford BC’s planning register

This page does not say whether an application is good or bad, and does not guess what the council will decide. It says what has been applied for and where to say what you think.

If the consultation has already closed

Guildford Borough Council has not published a fixed rule for a comment sent after the consultation period closes. Comments are checked and published in the order they arrive rather than by a hard cut-off, so contact the case officer named on the application, or the council's planning team on 01483 505050, before assuming a late comment cannot be considered.

What a comment can be about

The council can take these into account

loss of light
overlooking or a loss of privacy
parking, loading or turning
an increase in traffic, noise and disturbance
a loss of trees
poor road access
proposals in the local plan
previous appeal decisions
local, strategic, regional and national planning policies

The council cannot take these into account

loss of property value
private issues between neighbours
loss of a view
the impact of construction work or competition from other firms
matters covered by other legislation, including restrictive covenants
ownership disputes over rights of way
the applicant's motives, character or personal circumstances

The council aims to publish comments within ten working days; you need to register with your home address to comment, and your name (not your address) is shown alongside it.
