Thanks for the info!

Hi all, found this forum through Google when trying to look up some planning permission details. We've got a brick shed (2.8m tall) at the back of our property (directly on the property line, so definitely within 2m). The roof is in quite the state, so we'd like to take it down and replace the roof. Out planned replacement would put it under 2.5m. After doing some reading up, the one thing I can't seem to find an answer on with regards to permitted development is if the initial structure falls outside the permitted development rules, but the final doesn't, is that allowed, or does it require planning permission? Would we need planning if we kept the roof the same shape/size, using the same tiles, just replacing the frame? We spoke to our local council, but they just pointed us to the guidelines doc (somewhat impenetrable legalese) and said they weren't allowed to give us advice. Thanks!
