A Lawful Development Certificate (LDC) is a formal decision from the council confirming that a project is lawful — usually because it's permitted development. It's not the same as planning permission; it's proof that you don't need it. Many Wirral homeowners use one for peace of mind and to make a future sale or remortgage straightforward.
