So, my wife would like me to build her a potting shed. 4m high dual pitched roof, 2.1m eaves, 9m long, 4.5m deep.Behind house principle elevation so no planning permission required. This clearly exceeds building regs 30m2 rule though!
Outline plan is:
Question is, do I really need buildings regs for a shed?
Outline plan is:
- 3 bays, each 3m wide, left and middle bays open, right bay stud walled and wood clad for the tool shed
- stone pillars at front corners and at the 'bay' joins, so 4 stone pillars at the front
- rear block wall at 3m back
- rear roof pitch extending out past the rear wall by 1.5m with 4 rear oak posts bolted into 300mm circumference, 800mm deep concrete footings drilled with a hydraulic auger to the bedrock (we have 18 inches topsoil, then clay, then bedrock at about 800mm). This rear 1.5m is general garden storage
- stone pillars circa 300mm square on 600mm square pad footing
- rear block wall of concrete block rendered on the inside. 600 wide 600 deep footings.
