I am buying a detached bungalow in Staffordshire. Our aim is to an extension at the rear at the house.Will legal investigations on the property include enquiries to see if these works are allowed?
Your property lawyer will check the deeds as conveyancing in Staffordshire will occasionally reveal restrictions in the title documents which restrict certain alterations or need the consent of a 3rd party. Some extensions call for local authority planning consent and approval under the building regulations. Certain locations are designated conservation areas and special planning restrictions apply which often prevent or impact extensions. It would be sensible to check these things with a surveyor ahead of any purchase.

At the very least you should order a Home Buyer's Report. As the premises was built more than a decade ago the property will be without a warranty, so you don't want to take a risk. For a property that age with no signs of problems a Home Buyer's report may suffice. They will highlight any apparent issues and suggest additional investigation if relevant. If there are any signs of problems seek a comprehensive structural survey.
