CHOOSING YOUR REPORT
Which survey suits Up Hatherley properties
Most of Up Hatherley’s housing is standard 20th-century construction, generally suited to a RICS Level 2 Survey. Where a property sits within the older parish core, or shows signs of historic alteration, we recommend a RICS Level 3 Survey for a fuller assessment.
ABOUT THIS AREA
Up Hatherley was, like neighbouring Leckhampton, Swindon Village, and Prestbury, transferred from the Borough of Tewkesbury into Cheltenham Borough only in 1991. It sits on Cheltenham’s southern edge, adjacent to Leckhampton, and has developed substantially as a residential area over the 20th century, alongside an older parish core.
Being part of the ancient parish structure that predates Cheltenham’s modern boundaries means Up Hatherley’s planning history sometimes runs through records that were previously administered separately — worth understanding if researching an older property in detail.
We confirm whether a specific Up Hatherley property belongs to the area’s older parish core or its more extensive 20th-century residential development, since the right survey approach differs between the two.
Given its shared history with Leckhampton, Swindon Village, and Prestbury as a former Tewkesbury parish, we also factor in the area’s later formal joining with Cheltenham when relevant to planning history research.
