Satellite Dishes

Westminster City Council has produced a flowchart  to help you find out when Planning Permission is required for a satellite antenna

An interactive Antenna / Satellite Guide has also produced by the The Planning Portal.  Please note however this is only intended to be a guide and may not fully reflect local requirements. In particular note that a high proportion of Westminster is designated as Conservation Areas.

The Supplementary Planning Guidance (below) gives advice on the most appropriate locations to site a satellite dish, to minimise its visual impact.

If you require more specific advice please complete our Pre application advice enquiry form providing as much information as possible on the proposed siting of equipment, including photographs or drawings.  Please note that charges will apply.
