Homes in Gloucestershire at a glance

What the official figures mean for fitting a pet flap. Figures cover the six Gloucestershire districts and South Gloucestershire. These are area-wide figures, so your own home may be quite different. We'll always look at your actual door, glass or wall.

29.8%

of homes are detached houses

England average: 22.9%

About three in ten homes are detached, above average, often with a side door or wall that suits a flap.

Cotswold stone and Stroud's valleys

In the Cotswold and Stroud districts, around a quarter of homes were built before 1919, many from thick limestone. A door installation is usually simpler than cutting a stone wall. In Stroud's valleys, many homes are on steep slopes; for a dog flap, consider the step down outside the door.

Cheltenham and the Forest of Dean

Cheltenham has many Regency terraces and villas, a lot of them listed or converted into flats; about a quarter of households live in flats. In the Forest of Dean, around 45% of homes are detached and few are flats, so a back or side door is usually available.

Questions from homeowners in Gloucestershire

Can a cat flap go in a listed Regency house?

Only with listed building consent for altering original features. A modern rear door is the most likely option.

Is a stone wall flap worth it?

Only if there's no suitable door. Stone needs an extended tunnel and more work.

Who handles planning?

Your district council, or South Gloucestershire Council.
