Thanks Tony - I'll take that approach then. It probably doesn't look like it from the drawing but we can fit 3 cars on the front driveway. The gap down the side of the house is about 2m wide and we've never been able to get a car down there really. Thanks everyone for the advice...

Thanks Freddy, but doesn't the blue line mean I already have a rear extension? Which would mean that the side extension, if extended beyond the rear wall would be attached to the rear wall (black line is 1948 footprint as far as I can tell) as per first diagram on page 23 ? I think overall...

Freddy, this is the current plan view from the land registry. Blue line is how it looks now, Green is ideal extension extents, we could live with coming back to the purple line as we'd only lose a couple of feet. If we can only go to the yellow line, could we then apply for planning...

Would I need to be able to prove where this original addition ended and the dimensions of it to the council if there were any issues raised?

It extends the original foot print by an extra 2 ft rearwards, but obviously the side wall is built over where the original side wall stood - it's just 2 ft longer at 8ft rather than 6ft. So this suggests then that I can come back past the house by 6ft to where the original addition ended.

Hi all, Just after some advice/clarification on 'original house' where a part of the original side wall extending beyond the rear of the main house was taken down and replaced at some point after 1948. Specifically, we have 1930's house where the original 1928 overview plans (no...
