peterA Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 Hi everyone, A new neighbour is thinking of building as car port on his side of a shared drive with me. The structure will start just before the front elevation and extend about 15ft beyond the front of the house. Am I correct in thinking he cannot build beyond the front elevation without explicit planning approval. He has no approval, how can I stop this building Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Jimbo Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 He will need planning permission to build forward of the front elevation. If he is ok, have a word. If he is a twat, phone the council and ask for planning enforcement. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(c) any part of the building, enclosure, pool or container would be situated on land forward of a wall forming the principal elevation of the original dwellinghouse If you notify the planning department after he starts they may feel obliged to ask him to apply for planning permission. That may or may not be granted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
