Architectural drawings are widely used for a number of functions, and can come in several different forms depending on your needs. For most extensions or loft conversions at least some type of architectural drawing will be necessary, either to submit to councils or local authorities for planning agreement or building regulations approval, or for use by building contractors to effectively complete the building works.
Floor plans, site plans and elevation drawings will often need to be drawn up to submit to local authorities to either receive planning permission or to guarantee that the proposed work is undertaken under permitted development rights. These drawings will reveal the scale of the planned works, and offer the planning officer a sense of how the work may interact with the surrounding area. For construction requirements and for building regulations approval, technical drawings are often generated which detail the types of material used in the building work on a structural and insulation level.

Archway is a district inside the London Borough of Islington in inner north London. It is situated on the A1 and centred on Archway Tower and tube station. Archway has seven small parks and two large parks.
The name stems from the Archway bridge that was constructed in part of south Highgate for the minor road between south Highgate and Crouch End, Hornsey, in 1896. It was attempted several times to make a tunnel for the Highgate bypass, to join the Great North Road by avoiding the steep Highgate Hill and Highgate village’s narrow roads. Unfortunately, these tunnels failed on collapsing.
Archway designates the smaller than 0.4 square miles catchment of its underground station compared to all other stations. The official parishes and neighbourhoods within its definition are Highgate and Upper Holloway with a small part of Islington. In modern times, Upper Holloway is frequently restricted to the smaller sized catchment around its own railway station and post office.
Seven bus routes finish or commence at Archway and the term became popular amongst most Londoners when its tube station abandoned the prior name of Highgate. The Archway Road is part of the A1 or Great North Road, which is one of the original toll roads. From 1813-1864, Archway was the location of a toll gate. A plaque on the block of flats at 1 Pauntley Street commemorates the gate.
