You can visit the website for Dorset at the following link Dorset.Dorset Council is responsible for collecting council tax. This will vary depending on which council tax band the property falls within. You can check the council tax band at the gov.uk website.

Visit the local planning department and search for planning applications in this postcode granted within the last three years or still awaiting a decision. This will give an indication of what could still be built.
