Chimney stack removal

[Staxigoe100]

Hi
Looking for some advice. I have a chimney stack that is in a bad way, needs repointing, bricks have blown etc. Damp patch has appeared in ceiling. Rather than repair as it isn't used, I want to remove the stack. Would this require planning permission?

Probably not. But if it's a listed building, conservation area, scheduled ancient monument etc it may well do. Best to confirm with your local planners to be on the safe side.

It would certainly require building control notice.
