ToughButterCup Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 Have a look at this image please ... Does the covered area (highlighted) count towards the calculation of the '... total area of ground covered by building ... ' There's a bit of me that says - it is , and a bit of me that says it isn't. What do you think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joe90 Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 From the planning portal…… The rules governing outbuildings apply to *sheds, greenhouses and garages as well as other ancillary garden buildings such as swimming pools, ponds, sauna cabins, kennels, enclosures (including tennis courts) and many other kinds of structure for a purpose incidental to the enjoyment of the dwelling house. This includes a container used for domestic heating oil or petroleum gas. So I believe it is counted as “area covered by building….” p.s. surprised me a tennis court was also counted 🤷♂️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markc Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 Any covered area attached to a garden building is included in the building floor area, I’m guessing this is to prevent 36sq/m garages having another covered space at the side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DevilDamo Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 The covered area is irrelevant. It’s a verandah which would require Planning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
