Thanks Jeds
Our neighbours are seriously thinking of extending at the moment, it's been useful chatting with them even though our plans are quite different. Our revised plans are for a roughly 4.5 x 4.5m side extension slightly set back. Previously we had been looking at a larger floor area as it meant remodelling the stairs, and they ate into the new build. But it also meant we would have to bring the extension right to the front of the porch space to get a decent floor area for the new lounge. I must admit it looked a little imposing on our modest corner plot house, but I have seen far worse monstrosities, at least we were matching what we have! There was one similar extension round the corner recently done with a timber frame, but I don't know much about them?
I won't be at the pc for the rest of the week as we are away, so if anyone else does reply, please excuse my serious lack of input!
Kind regards.
