I’ve just built a garden room at home which is 20m2 within 1m of the boundary line. The plan was to keep the building at a maximum height of 2.5m in line with what I had read online as the ‘max permitted height without needing planning permission’ but I failed to factor in part of the roof build up and the overall size has ended up being 2540mm!
Now my problem is that I’ve had a letter from the council to say they’ve had reports that I am building an outbuilding at my address and they want to come and inspect it! So, am I likely screwed or will they overlook the 40mm??? None of my immediate neighbours have an issue with it but there is a lady who lives on the road behind mine who literally complains about everything so I’m assuming it’s her who has told the council.
