Anybody familiar with permitted building/development rights?
Any planning, architect or development people on here?
Our neighbours are planning to build a 21x10 ft pool in their garden. I believe they need planning permission due to a restriction on permitted
development rights on our street. They don't think they do and plan to start works next week.
I have an appointment with the planning office next week to go over my own application for a conservatory so will be asking them then.
In the meantime can anyone point me in the right direction for more info?
Cheers
Nick

From what I can remember permitted development is fairly narrow and the constraints beyond this are mostly to do with height above 2.1m, whether a
business is to be run out of 'it' or noise - Might be something on the latter?...
Not sure that a pool is going to need permission - Biggest issue he'll have is with the water co. putting him on a meter and maybe relaying a
larger service - ditto gas or electric if it's to be heated.
If you pay peanuts...

Does your local council have a website, there may be some details on there. What is and isn't permitted does vary a bit around the country.

I had some problems with my council & to get the extension I wanted had to sign away my PD rights for future. One example he gave me of PD rights
was that you could build a swimming pool without planning (within PD rights) but if you then wanted any type of structure above a certain height to
cover the pool you would need planning permission. If you have restricted PD rights you need to find out what the restrictions are.HTH
I no longer run Furore Products or Furore Cars Ltd, but would still highly recommend them for Acewell dashes, projector headlights, dominator
headlights, indicators, mirrors etc, best prices in the UK! Take a look at http://www.furoreproducts.co.uk/ or find more parts on Ebay, user names
furoreltd & furoreproducts, discounts available for LCB users.
Don't forget Stainless Steel Braided brake hoses, made to your exact requirements in any of around 16 colours.

Thanks for the feedback guys.
my local planning office have advised that when our street was built, the permitted development rights were removed. They have confirmed I need
permission for my conservatory, but seem a bit vague on the pool issue.
I guess what I need is details of what restrictions were applied to the original development?

Not if you slip the gas man a nice bundle of cash to lay a line from before the meter

Is the pool going to affect you significantly and would you put in an objection if they did require it an put in an application?

If my neighbours were putting in a pool
I'd be their new best friend, I could bomb from my shed roof 
yours, Pete
I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

I don't see it as being a problem other than maybe noisey kids playing in the summer and I wouldn't object to planning permission if
required.
However their neighbours on the other side aren't happy about it. If the pool needed permission and was built without then they might be
inclined to kick up a stink after the event. This would obviously be a hassle for the pool owner and possibly more disruption for all of us.
It's partly self protection and partly neighbour politics that has made me look into it
