East Riding of Yorkshire includes Beverley, Bridlington, and Goole. Known for historic market towns, coastal resorts, and agricultural landscapes, planning focuses on conservation and sensitive residential growth.
In the last year East Riding of Yorkshire decided 1,878 applications which is well above the national average of 988. The approval rate was 89% (roughly equal to the national average of 88%) and 85% of applications were decided on time, (significantly above the national average of 59%). Stats updated March 2026 from gov. sources. See how East Riding of Yorkshire performs relative to other LPAs in our LPA hub.
East Riding’s agricultural plains, estuaries, and historic villages are visually prominent and safeguarded from inappropriate development.
One of the top reasons poorly prepared proposals in the Open Countryside are refused is that they fail to demonstrate a policy-supported need. To minimise that risk with bespoke advice contact us here.
The Humber Estuary, the River Hull catchment, and the low-lying Vale of York together create some of the most extensive Flood Zone 3 areas in the country, severely constraining growth across much of the authority.
Where constraints permit, we can develop proposals that manage flood risk thoughtfully to give applications the best chance of approval. Learn more about development risks in flood risk areas here.
Parts of the East Riding fall within the Hornsea Mere catchment, where both nitrogen and phosphorus neutrality apply to new residential development affecting this internationally important coastal lake.
Unfortunately, Nutrient Neutrality can halt development completely. If you need early-stage, project-specific advice contact us here.
In addition to acting as Planing Conultants we are ARB registered architects with 25+ years of experience. We provide a full range of planning services, including:
Thoughtful, well-considered design is often the key to securing Planning Permission, particularly on sites where others struggle to find a way forward. Let’s discuss your project.
