Thanks Woody,
If they did remove PD rights after we make the pp application I guess these only kick in once you have built it out?
Could we also not include the rear part on the red lines on the pp app?
Has anyone else got any creative ideas?
HI there, after a couple of pre-apps and a refusal my local council have agreed in principle to my two storey side extension providing i step in by 1m at first floor level. This will replace an existing single storey side extension built with PP (keeping the same width at ground floor). This...
Looking at the construction of the extension wall it’s the following:
100mm concrete outer block
100mm? thermolite block inner
25mm DR therm polystyrene slab cavity clipped to inner skin

Thanks for your reply, Woody, I have an architect working on plans, and he never mentioned any of the above potential issues. I wanted to speak to a couple of builders to get a very rough idea of costs, to see if I can afford an extension of this scale. I realise that without concrete plans then...

Hi there,
We live in a 1930's semi on a decent sized corner plot. We had a meeting with the council planners and they agreed we had potential to build a small bungalow at the bottom of the plot/garden. This is our long term plan but in the meantime we plan to develop our current plot with a rear...
Hi there,
I wish to do a rear one/two storey extension on my corner plot semi detached property.
The house has an existing side (kitchen) extension that is flush with the rear of the main house and set back 3m at the front. This was done through planning permission (not PD) many years ago
A...
Thanks again Notch. I think I (kind of) know what you mean. Any chance you could find a quick google image showing similar?
Something a little bit like this?
