    What impact does the GPDO ammendment (in reaction to Hilton) have on my side extension?

    0Hello, I made a post over a year ago about a failed PD request that was denied by the council. In summary, I live in a semi-detached house. My house has a flat rear wall but for a small square 'boiler room' (approx 1m x 1m) bolted on to the right hand side of the rear wall. I wanted to do a...

    Misinterpretation of Permitted Development rules by Council?

    Jeds, I joined Planning Jungle but am a bit lost as to where to find the appeal details. Is there a particular document on the site or text-string I can search for to locate references to relevant appeals? Many thanks.

    Misinterpretation of Permitted Development rules by Council?

    Thanks for all the additional comments. Thoughts/questions based on what people have said. 1. I understand the rationale for putting in a full application now while appealing. Is there any sense in pushing for more than 3.5m? The supplementary planning documents for my area suggest that rear...

    Misinterpretation of Permitted Development rules by Council?

    I've managed to find one successful appeal which looks to be a similar case. It's quite tricky to find these things though and I've not been able to find any others. Appeal Decision...

    Misinterpretation of Permitted Development rules by Council?

    Annoying. This is really frustrating, but very grateful for your advice. SO I suppose my question is what the grounds of an appeal would be. I don't know to what standard the small toilet/biolder room is built - does that make a difference? I presume it was part of the original dwelling, but I...

    We had them done my an architect. Tony: are you able to point to any appeal decisions that were successful? Would be interesting to see the arguments that were made. I also found this document from Havering Council: https://www.havering.gov.uk/Documents/Planning/larger-home-extension-guide.pdf...

    So, even though my proposed extension does not extend beyond what I would describe as the "main" side elevation of the house - it counts as a side extension? I've attached the plans incase my description isn't clear.

    Misinterpretation of Permitted Development rules by Council?

    Hello, I've just had an application for permitted development refused. I live in a semi-detached house with a 1mx1m boiler room/ex-outside toilet at the back of the house. I wanted to do a rear extension across the full width of the house, but it has been declined on the basis that "the...

    Rear extensions - where does one even start?

    We are planning on building a rear extension to our three bedroom semi-detached house that we have recently moved into. From reading here, I note the importance of getting multiple quotes, but I'm not quite sure what the best way is to get the final extension planned and drawn so that we can get...

    Buiilding a white plinth / display pedastal

    Hi, I'm looking to buy one of those square pillars used to display art in museums and galleries. Similar to those shown on this page: http://www.plinths.co.uk/products/pedestalbases.htm I can't stretch to the £125 cost of those and really need it for Friday... so I'm intending to try and...
