Highgate splits between councils, not between Acts.

Two boroughs
Haringey and Camden, one Act
2017
The Highgate Neighbourhood Plan adopted
N6
Village terraces and larger houses

NU Projects is a design and build company in Fulham SW6, founded in 2010. We handle party wall notices and awards in Highgate N6, under one contract. Fees are priced per project by our own quantity surveyor, from the actual scope. Call 020 7731 6841, and a budget estimate typically follows within seven days.

Highgate sits across Haringey and Camden. Planning depends on which side your house is.

The Party Wall Act does not. Its notices and time limits match on both sides.

Around the village core, Georgian houses share walls. Work to those walls needs two months’ notice.

Further out, larger houses stand detached or in pairs. There, a dig nearby is the usual trigger.

A front light well can run close to the boundary. Haringey limits one to half the front garden.

What the council allows in Highgate.

Council
Haringey or Camden, by address. The Act applies the same in both.

Two months’ notice for work to a party wall.
Excavation
One month’s notice for a dig within three or six metres.
Light wells
Haringey’s Policy DM18 limits a front light well to half the front garden.

Does it matter which borough my Highgate house is in for party walls?

Not for the Act. Notices work the same in Haringey and Camden.

It matters for planning, where each council has its own basement policy.

Do Georgian houses in Highgate village need party wall awards?

Often, for structural work. Many share walls with the houses either side.

Steels or underpinning on those walls are notifiable.

Does a Highgate front light well need party wall notice?

It can, if the dig falls within reach of a neighbour’s foundations.

Distance and depth decide it. We measure both on site.

What if my Highgate neighbour never replies?

After 14 days, silence becomes a dispute under the Act.

A surveyor can then be appointed for them, and the award follows.
