Hi,

I would be inclined to say no, based on the building line of the road to the rear of your property. It could easily be considered 'overdevelopment' of the site. However, you could get lucky at planning appeal - but it's probably got a 5% chance of approval?!

If you're in a Conservation Area, it needs planning permission. I assume it is 2.5m in width? As long as that is less than half the width of the original house, and the extension doesn't protrude either the front elevation, or the rear elevation - you're all good. If it's a conservatory - it needs p...

In theory, it would be possible to extend 3 metres from the rear wall of the dwelling across the rear elevation - so your end result could be an extension projecting 3 metres from the wall of the house, and 3 metres from the wall of the utility room (resulting in a 5.5 metre 'extension' at the utili...

Hi Pete,

Class E of the GPDO is black and white, which will leave an inspector no legal basis to refuse your application. I wouldn't worry about 'precedents' as it is so straightforward!

Hi, It sounds as if the planner is correct. There is no legal definition of curtilage, but land falling outside the boundary of your property which appears to be 'shared' would not be considered to be within the curtilage of your dwelling. It sounds as if the Council is unlikely to take enforcement ...

You will be able to object to any application in the normal way. The success of the application will depend upon the current use of the site, but it seems to me as if there are plenty of legitimate planning objections that could be made. Unfortunately, you have no right to appeal the Council's decis...
