Ealing Planning Consultants
Ealing in West London includes Ealing town, Acton, and Southall. Known for its film studios, parks, and suburban neighbourhoods, around 5.6% of the borough is Green Belt. Planning focuses on urban densification, extensions, and conservation. We can support residential and commercial projects across Ealing.
In the last year Ealing decided 1,835 applications which is well above the national average of 988. The approval rate was 85% (roughly equal to the national average of 88%) and 41% of applications were decided on time, (significantly below the national average of 59%). Stats updated March 2026 from gov. sources. See how Ealing performs relative to other LPAs in our LPA hub.
"We love helping clients win Planning Permission in Ealing"
Conservation and Listed Buildings in Ealing
Ealing has a well-defined historic environment, with numerous Conservation Areas and a significant number of listed buildings across its suburban centres. Heritage constraints are particularly evident within the Ealing Green Conservation Area and Bedford Park Conservation Area, where planned suburban layouts, Victorian architecture, and landscaped streets create a sensitive townscape.
One of the top reasons heritage building applications are refused is causing harm to historic significance, a risk that can arise when proposals are not prepared by a consultant with heritage expertise. We help minimise this risk with expert, site-specific guidance; contact us here.
Green Belt Approvals in Ealing
The Green Belt is a policy protecting land around many English towns and cities, where development is tightly controlled to safeguard the open countryside.
5.6% of Ealing is within the Green Belt and proposals in these areas can be subject to high levels of scrutiny.
Development within the Green Belt surrounding London is highly sensitive and politically contentious.
In our experience, one of the top reasons poorly conceived Green Belt proposals are refused is causing 'harm to openness'. We can lower the risk of refusal with site-specific guidance. Contact us here.
You can also check whether your land is within the Green Belt using our interactive Green Belt map.
