Hi,
I’m wanting to change the external appearance of my house as I don’t like the 1960’s cream bricks so I was hoping to render/cedar clad the front and add an additional window. I’m not in a conservation area and it’s not listed (no surprise there).
Reading the guidance on my local authority planning page it doesn’t sound like I need planning permission, but will there need to be structural considerations since the majority of the support for the upper level will be shifting to two lintels with a column in the middle?
Also any thoughts on the design? I threw it together tonight so it’s only a first draft.
