Do you need permission for a sign in Rutherglen?
In Scotland, signs are controlled by the Town and Country Planning (Control of Advertisements) (Scotland) Regulations 1984, as amended. Some signs on business premises are allowed without an application, but the details differ from England's, so we check with the council rather than assume. Where express consent is needed, the application goes to the council, usually through eDevelopment.scot. Listed buildings need extra care: listed building consent is usually required under the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) (Scotland) Act 1997. We look at your premises before you commit and can prepare the drawings and photos, or submit the application for you.
