Post Part Q changes

[Baggy]

Hi all

We moved to a house that was built under Part Q about 7 years ago. We want to alter fences and gates, will we need PP for this?

I think you have the same rights as most other houses. The legislation here..

 

https://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2015/596/schedule/2/made

 

Precludes an extension (Part 1, Class A) if your house was converted under class Q, however I don't see a similar restriction in Part 2 Class A Fences.

 

So I think you can have 2m fences except where adjacent to a highway or footpath where its 1m high.

Have you been online and checked there weren’t any conditions. 
We are not Part Q but we had to do a landscaping plan that the type of fencing.
