Design Standards for Letchworth Garden City

Following extensive research, the ‘Design Standards’ for external alterations to Garden City homes are changing.
Taking into account the age and style of properties, no longer will every home in the Garden City be subject to the same standards.

Instead, three separate ‘Character Areas’ have been identified:

  • Early Garden City
  • Later Garden City
  • Modern Garden City

Please note if you live on the Jackmans or Grange Estates, these 'Standards' may not apply.

Each ‘Character Area’ has its own set of Standards.
