An Article 4 Direction (A4D) is part of planning legislation that allows the Council to remove permitted development rights including changes of use from an area or a particular property.
Permitted development (PD) rights are a national grant of planning permission which allow certain works and change of use to be carried out without having to make a planning application under the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015 ("the Order"). These rights can be withdrawn under Article 4(1) of the order if there is a justification for both its purpose and extent.
The Article 4 Directions on this page refer to a change of use of properties, and are not in relation to works to a dwelling house in conservation areas that have Article 4 Directions. Please see St Mark's conservation area or De Beauvoir conservation area for more information.
Article 4 Direction to remove permitted development rights for change of use from office to residential in the Exemption Area
Flexible town centre uses
Launderette to residential
Storage and distribution to residential
The Chesham Arms Public House 15 Mehetabel Road, London, E9 6DU
We have made a non-immediate Article 4 Direction to remove permitted development rights for change of use from office to residential in the exemption area. The area was given exemption from office to residential permitted development rights by the government in May 2013, but it expires in May 2019. We've therefore made an Article 4 Direction so we can continue managing changes of use in this area to protect the amenity and wellbeing of the area and support this significant area of economic activity.

Any representations concerning the Article 4 Direction can be made between 12 March and 5pm on 6 April. If you wish to make representations you may do so:
We've made the Article 4 Direction without immediate effect under Article 4(1) to withdraw the permitted development rights after 12 months' notice. The direction was agreed by Cabinet in February 2018 and is proposed to come into force in March 2019. It will be necessary to submit a planning application to allow the Council to assess the impacts that a change of use would have in the area covered by the Direction.

Exemption area
Date made: 12 March 2018. Due to come into effect in March 2019 (in advance of the end of the Exemption).
Certain areas of Hackney were granted exemption from change of use from B1(a) (offices) to C3 (dwellinghouses) by the government in May 2013 on the basis that loss of office space in these locations would constitute a threat to this nationally significant area of economic activity. The exemption expires in May 2019 so we've made an Article 4 Direction for the area to ensure that valuable employment floorspace in this area continues to be protected.
Please refer to the map to see the extent of the area - it covers Shoreditch and much of Hoxton, Dalston and Hackney Central.
Retail to residential use
We've made a non-immediate Article 4 Direction to remove permitted development rights for change of use from A1 (shops) and A2 (financial and professional services) to C3 (dwellinghouses) permitted under Class M of part 3 of schedule 2 of the GPDO. It applies to the following locations:
