Planning and safety in South Shields
In South Shields, as elsewhere in England, planning questions go to your local planning authority (the district, borough, city or unitary council).
- Ventilation: Keep background ventilation in mind in rooms with gas appliances; slotted laths or a part-open setting help.
- Expectations: Shutters help most when they are closed, so they make the biggest difference at night and on hot afternoons.
