Hard to judge from photos, but it doesn't look like more than 15m2 to me. Mine's 16m2 internally, and it looks like half a house.
I don't understand what point you're making. Please explain.Nonsense why? If one doesn't know the rules how can one advise others or know how to proceed?
It’s timber frame with metal claddingWhat's yours made of? If it's "substantially non-combustible" then according to that labc guide it can be 30m2. It looks like metal to me, in which case you may be covered under that.
Mine's brick, and is around 16m2. It seems I could have built much bigger if I'd wanted to.
It absolutely doesn't work like that (lawfully). The height is measured from the original existing ground level, you cannot (lawfully) add a bit of earth to make it seem like the ground is higher to begin with. That said some will inevitably do that and take their chances.Just say you had to clear the original high point of the land, to get a level base for it.
The floor area is a Building Control issue not Planning.I don't understand what point you're making. Please explain.
My point is that the official government guidance doesn't state anything about area - floor, building or otherwise. Lots of unofficial sites give all kinds of numbers, e.g. 15m2 or 30m2 if non-combustible. But as far as I can tell this is all rumour.
The official guidance doesn't actually state whether it's the ground level now, last week, before building or during the neolithic period...It absolutely doesn't work like that (lawfully).

That’s not the case in the vast majority of areas.Where we live ANY garden structure needs planning permission ….
