The Planning Process for Garden Pods
Garden Pod are considered Permitted Development and do NOT require planning permission as long as:
- The building is to be placed less than 2.0m from the boundary of the property with a maximum overall height of no more than 2.5m from existing ground level.
- The building is to be placed more than 2.0m from the boundary of the property. If this is the case, a single storey garden pod can have a maximum eave height of 2.5m, which is a maximum overall height of 4.0m for a dual-pitched roof and 3.0m maximum overall height for a pent roofed building. If you would like the overall height to be taller than these roof heights, you will need to apply for planning permission.
Other criteria to consider regarding planning permission for your garden building:
- The building is not to be used as self-contained living accommodation or have an antenna*.
- No more than 50% of the area of land around the original house** should be taken up by your Garden Pod.
- Outbuildings should not be closer to a road or public highway than the original house** itself.
** (The term original house means the house as it was first built or as it stood as of 1 July 1948 (if it was built before this date). Any extension, even if completed by a previous occupier, does not constitute the original house (unless it was in place on 1 July 1948).
