    Successful Retrospective Planning

    Not as much, and will do if it’s a requirement but we can’t get it under the 2.5m for the full 1m as I think our inside ceiling (from ground with decking) probably hits the 2.5m. Would be potential compromise.

    Successful Retrospective Planning

    Doesn’t really. I’m really hoping Council thinks so too. If anything to let me stop thinking about it every waking hour lol.

    Successful Retrospective Planning

    Yes - my quote earlier was wrong! Peak of roof approx 59cm above the 2.5m. Hoping maybe a compromise on roof structure can be made. Not possible to have within 2.5 for the metre but can be altered / lowered - but casts no shadow and blocks no view (view is of other neighbour’s gable end of...

    Successful Retrospective Planning

    My son still has to duck to get through door. What about mahoosive people’s rights?!? This same neighbour chatted away to us whilst being built & we explained we couldn’t buy a kit. This same neighbour said access his garden any time to paint when completed. Victor Meldrew just hates us!

    Successful Retrospective Planning

    It’s slightly less from natural ground as ground at fence of boundary slightly higher hence the decking but this was my measurements for enforcement I’ll do accurate ones for application. Enforcement said 2/3cms over they’d process. The recommendation is to move within the 1m which would negate...

    Successful Retrospective Planning

    I’m really naive with this….. sorry. If pre app negative would that not mean an actual application would be the same? Peak of roof is approx 30cm above 2.5m.

    Successful Retrospective Planning

    Because it’s free and recommend way forward by Council. Retrospective is £202. Our other suggested remedy is to move the whole structure by 1m all round. This is not a pop up summerhouse & thinking that moving will cost £1000’s in labour. Saving every penny incase it’s required. I’m just...

    Successful Retrospective Planning

    Anyone successfully received Retrospective Planning? We built a summerhouse within 1m of neighbours boundary (rookie error) this is outwith the 2.5m limit - our son is 6foot 9! Did not know of regulations. Within a year of it being built and despite being told we can access garden to paint, our...

    Retrospective planning permission for outbuilding

    How did your son get on? I’m in a similar position. Our alternative option is to move whole sun house by 1m. Awaiting pre application being applied for to see how we stand.
