Architectural drawings are utilised for many purposes, and can come in several distinct forms depending on your requirements. For some extensions or loft conversions at least some type of architectural drawing will be needed, either to submit to councils or local authorities for planning agreement or building regulations approval, or for use by building contractors to correctly undertake the building works.
Floor plans, site plans and elevation drawings will likely have to be drawn up to submit to local authorities to either receive planning permission or to assure that the proposed work is carried out under permitted development rights. These drawings will demonstrate the scale of the planned works, and give the planning officer a sense of the way the work may interact with the surrounding area. For construction requirements and for building regulations approval, technical drawings are generally generated which detail the types of materials employed in the building work for structural and insulation purposes.

Bellingham is an area in south east London, in the London Borough of Lewisham. Its neighbouring districts are Catford, Downham and Sydenham. The Ravensbourne River runs through the middle of Bellingham, also to the west and east it is bordered by railway lines working south from Catford.
The name Bellingham means âthe water-meadow belonging to Beora’s people’, and was the true name of the medieval manor in the region. The true name was preserved by the farm in the area, Bellingham Railway Station and the Bellingham Estate. Other historical names have been preserved by the road names of the estate, which are linked with King Alfred, who was thought to have been the lord of the manor of Lewisham, and were taken from the true names of mills, houses and fields in the certain area.
Bellingham was farmland until the Bellingham Estate was built, between 1920 and 1923. London City Council built about 2600 houses and flats during this time period. Bellingham Estate was among the many large estates built by London City Council following the First World War to assist with slum clearance and relieve overcrowding. As there was lots of land available most of the dwellings constructed were two-story houses, and there was plenty of green, open space.
Today, Bellingham is a localised city centre. Its traditional is Randlesdown Road, which includes a supermarket, a gym, hairdressers and multiple restaurants and food outlets. It has a sixth form college also, and a church and a library. Bellingham boasts many well-known past and present residents, including the singer/song-writer Kate Bush, the former Labour Prime Minister James Callaghan, and the footballer Ian Wright.
