Morning all,
We're intending to do a hip to gable loft conversion with dormer across the rear of a semi detached house, typical 1930's semi. We already have a 3m pitched roof single story extension at the rear of the property, the extension and the main roof are not linked, the extension roof touches the house below the upstairs windows. The LPA has said we need full planning as we exceed the 50m3 limit due to the entire volume of the extension being included in the volume calculation (so we're 22m3 over). Is this the correct interpretation of the regulations?
