Homes in North Yorkshire at a glance
What the official figures mean for fitting a pet flap. Figures cover York and the seven former North Yorkshire districts (now North Yorkshire Council). These are area-wide figures, so your own home may be quite different. We'll always look at your actual door, glass or wall.
24.4%
of homes were built before 1919
England average: 20.3%
Almost a quarter of homes were built before 1919, above average. Many are stone-built with thick walls.
Dales and Moors
The Yorkshire Dales and North York Moors National Parks each have their own planning authority. Traditional homes there are built from local stone, often with thick walls, so a door installation is usually simpler than a wall flap. Exposed homes benefit from a well-sealed flap.
York, Harrogate and the coast
York and Harrogate have many listed Georgian and Victorian buildings and large conservation areas. Coastal towns such as Scarborough and Whitby have older terraces on steep streets, where the step outside a back door matters for a dog flap.

Questions from homeowners in North Yorkshire
Do I need permission in the Yorkshire Dales?
Most rear-door flaps don't, but listed buildings do. The national park authority can advise.
Is a stone wall suitable for a cat flap?
Yes, with an extended tunnel, but a door is usually quicker and neater.
Who handles planning?
North Yorkshire Council, City of York Council, or the relevant national park authority.
