frob Posted July 3, 2010 Share Posted July 3, 2010 pssst... frob! See the first bullet point here.... http://www.planningportal.gov.uk/england/public/buildingwork/projects/workcommonoutbuildings/ Shhh, lets keep our voices realy low. Are you reffering to the point that is a full two years out of date? (spoken in a whisper) Shhh, hush now, the children are sleeping. Teehee!

garrence Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 Are you reffering to the point that is a full two years out of date? I'm referring to this bit: Under new regulations that came into effect on 1 October 2008 outbuildings are considered to be permitted development, not needing planning permission, subject to the following limits and conditions: No outbuilding on land forward of a wall forming the principal elevation. Here's a more pretty one done in Flash http://www.planningportal.gov.uk/uploads/miniguides/outbuildings/outbuildings.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's a more pretty one done in Flash http://www.planningportal.gov.uk/uploads/miniguides/outbuildings/outbuildings.html Yes, that is pretty isn't it. Not as pretty as the HUGE shed that I built in my front garden in April though. Planning came round to see me after someone had compained. I quoted the sub clause in the revised regulations (which puts the regs two years out of date) and 3 days later I recieved a letter from them saying that no action would be taken. Yipyaahoo!! It pays to dig a little deeper below the surface instead of taking everything as read doesn't it!? Try it yourself! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garrence Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 Yes it does! It is far more important to tediously memorise and follow all laws than to think for yourself! Did you know that last year HeadingNorth proudly reported his relatives for eating turkey on Christmas Day? That'll punish them for not realising that in 1588 Elizabeth I enacted a law making it an offence to eat any bird other than goose on Christmas day. Things which are illegal are still illegal whether they cause a problem to anybody else or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skip through life, happy as a sand boy. My lads are home for dinner tomoro' Yipee. Got some catching up to do. Love to you all, Good night and God bless.

Berberis Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 Why not report it to the local council. If the shed is contradictory to the law/regulations or bylaws, then something will be done about it. If it is not, the shed will stay put no doubt. What harm is done? All you have done is question something’s legality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyfriday Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 I have only just signed up to this forum, but I have been watching it for yonks. Posters such as headingnorth, banana split and co have always given me the giggles. They post with such authority while having no real clue what they are talking about, then a huge barny breaks out! hehe haha! Anyway. A shed is classed as a temporary building and does not require planning permission. Thanks for the entertainment guys. hoho! It seems you've joined the 'Posting with Authority' or was it 'Pot Calling Kettle Black' club? I've no authority whatsoever, but it might also be worth pointing out that many properties in Sheff are leasehold, and any new structure may require the permission of the leaseholder.

Danield Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 Too many people in Sheffield have sheds. There are far too many "potterers" for my liking. They should find a proper hobby rather than hang around in a boring shed all weekend! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
