PLANNING PERMISSION
The requirement for planning permission for general garden buildings suggests that the Breeze Houses would usually fall within Class E, Part 1, Schedule 2. This states that planning permission should not be required if the building is in the back garden, is not within 5 metres of the house and that not more than 50% of the garden is covered by buildings. It is recommended to contact your local Planning Authority as to the exact requirement for planning permission prior to the installation of any such building or buildings.
