Update: Architect this morning has also asked us as his "clients" to speak with the LPA and/or Enforcement officer regarding the issues and also show them the architects variation of drawings and find out if there's any area of the build we can continue on with. Slightly bemused by this as...

Asked the same question to the Architect and other than him swerving to give a straight answer it appears no we can't and yes the build has come to a complete halt. Had the Architects around at 7am this morning and we are still none the wiser as to why they varied from the plans, other than...

I have now attached some Architect drawings... see if any of you can spot the differences! At no time did we as clients give consent to the Architect to make material changes that could/will jeopardise the build and be in breach of planning based on the approved drawings. The colour drawings...
