Thanks everyone for your responses which were very helpful; however I think it is now moot as we are changing our design completely!

Thanks for that thorough response with drawing. Yes, what you have drawn is exactly my situation, if our adjoining neighbour is on the left. In fact, my plans have been through the hands of two architect firms (one I employed privately for the initial drawings and one who works with my builder...

This is the PD guidance I referred to when I asked my architect to redraft the plans for reapplication, which addresses the stepped rear wall situation but does not mention that it forms a side elevation. does the above guidance not apply to my situation? Also, being quite a small step out...

A bit confused by this point here - could you please clarify Tony? I think the original rear wall should be marked clearly on the plan (I will double check this) along with our proposed rear wall which is maximally 6m from original and flush all the way across the rear width of the property ...

Thanks everyone. This is all very useful. -we have a joint party wall surveyor (initially instructed by the neighbour) who we appointed afterwards to act for both of us. He said he will issue the award by tomorrow and has every thing he needs. - Tony- the plan which we submitted initially for...

Thanks so much for your replies. we are definitely not worried about the extra 85 cm which was just a bonus really like you said, but more worried that our neighbour objected without us realising and is now very determined to get this decision overturned. He is simply refusing to believe the "no...

In December we recieved a "no prior approval" notice from the council for our larger home extension (via neighbour consultation scheme). It said there was no objection from neighbours and we are legally allowed to start works. So we lined up builders, paid deposits, purchased bifolds, planned...

We have drawings and approval for our rear extension, and are in the process of drafting the party wall agreement. Our adjoining neighbour has raised a concern that the parapet wall facing his property is 5-6 bricks high, and in order to sign the the party wall agreement he wants this removed...

yes, this is exactly what we are doing; sorry in hindsight i do not think OP can do side AND rear extensions together under PD if they are connected. these guys are the experts!

if you look at the ncs form on planning portal here https://ecab.planningportal.co.uk/uploads/1app/forms/notification_of_a_proposed_larger_home_extension.pdf it says ; Where the enlarged part will be joined to an existing enlargement of the dwellinghouse, please provide the total enlargement...

i would have a pre application meeting with your planning dept if i were you. not sure about side extensions but my council allows pd rear extension added to previous planned rear extension (unless your pd rights were removed). no harm in submitting the form for neighbour consultation and seeing...

Thanks everyone for your thoughts on this so far. I feel like it is an important question and I am sure I won't be the only one trying to navigate PD and PP rights at the same time. A few relevant things i've found online this evening...

The planning permission we received does not remove my PD rights. Yes they would attach because the first floor will be built on top of the existing 3m ground floor extension, which i understand once extended under Pd is counted as one large 6m extension. The PD application does mention the...

i don't have approval for the PD extension , only confirmation that no neighbours objected and hence "no prior approval" needed. i do not have a certificate of lawful development, so my understanding is it could still be lawful, or indeed unlawful if it breaches PD rules (by going beyond 3m on...

This question has been in part answered already but i would be very grateful for some clarification if anyone has the time to help. We put in two applications together, a larger house extension for a single story 6m rear extension (based on current floor plans upstairs), and we simultaneously...

You make a convincing case. I have no reason to believe this is not original. I don't expect anyone will notice or care, but if i do get called out hopefully the "no harm done" for a minor technical breach should suffice. the distinction between original and non original outbuilding is just not...

Thank you both for your thoughts on this and apologies if my question overlapped with my previous post. Lots to consider, it's a big project! everyone we ask either has no clue or gives contradicting advice, so your knowledge has been invaluable. The garage is original as there are no plans...

Hello! Just trying to work out whether it falls under permitted development to add an internal access door from new full width kitchen extension to existing detached garage (not changing use, converting, or rebuilding garage). We will be leaving the garage exactly as it is. A full width 6m rear...

Just found evidence/ confirmation of the above. If you do change the plan from what was supplied it has to be with written agreement from LPA. we will try to get this by letter (without reapplication via NCS) in the first instance since going full width on the non-shared boundary side has no...

Thanks so much for your detailed reply So to summarise your view, - yes i need to reduce the entire rear to 3m eaves if a flat roof -i don't need to get a LDC prior to build, should just crack on What about for our deviation from the plan submitted (in which we have not gone full width to...
