About Oldfield Park

- Victorian terraced houses (often 2-up-2-down or through-lounge)
- Edwardian terraced houses (slightly higher ceilings, decorative cornicing)

Planning & permissions
The planning context in Oldfield Park
Where the conservation area applies, Article 4(2) controls come into play. Outside it, normal PD rules apply for extensions and most kitchen work.
Typical extension opportunities
Side-return extensions, rear single-storey extensions, and kitchen-diner knock-throughs (with an RSJ for the chimney breast) are all standard Oldfield Park jobs. Loft conversions are common for student HMOs.
