As a guide only, we are suggesting that MHCLG’s guidance on this issue is persuasive, which indicates that the commencement of construction work is usually marked by these features.

excavation for strip or trench foundations or for pad footings, or the digging out and preparation of ground for raft foundations;
vibroflotation (stone columns) piling, boring for piles or pile driving;
drainage work specific to the building(s) concerned.Whereas the following would generally not be seen as marking the commencement of construction work:
removal of vegetation, or top soil, or the removal or treatment of contaminated soil
demolition of any previous buildings on the site;
excavation of trial holes, dynamic compaction, or general site servicing works (e.g. roadways)

Where clients have more limited cover for FSN matters, or in some circumstances no cover at all, those positions will not alter as a result of the new ‘default’ position.
