wookie62   10 #1 Posted May 1, 2020 Just wondering if any builders out there could shed some light on a potential build I have in mind. I live in a 2 up, 2 down, end terrace, ex council house, onto the back of I would like to add a "Catio", basically a pergola with wire mesh to prevent escape from for our cats. The proposed measurements for the structure would be 30ft by 14ft x 10ft high. Would I need to apply for planning permission before building could go ahead?? And would the structure be classed as an outdoor building??? Many thanks in advance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

rg-decor   10 #4 Posted May 4, 2020 Pretty sure it would be classed as a temporary building therefore wouldn’t need planning. Similar to a conservatory or summer room, don’t think it can exceed the size of the biggest room in the house though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
