(sorry!)

Please wish us luck guys - sounds like we're gonna need it!
Don't they have to get planning permission if you're going to be losing sunlight from your garden? Or indeed, anyway?

I'm not sure to be honest but another friend on here as just mailed me to say the same.

I do get on well with them but this just isn't the ideal time really. As others have said though it could hi-light the potential in our property!!

KWYM - you could do without the hassle though. Sending some K for you. Good luck - hope it sells quickly for you.

No...I had a conservatory put on my house and as long as its smaller than a certain % of the house and i think that % is 50%(dont quote me thou) and the top half is glass or of a see through nature you dont need permission. From the council planning at least...From the original builders of the house its a different matter...as Im now finding out...It is apparently in my deeds that I should have had permission from them to put it up...but god knows why...Only found that out since finding a buyer and I cant say I took that part of my deeds in when I bought the house 10 years ago...ooops

Ah, thank you Peppi. Illumination - if you'll pardon the pun... That makes sense - I think!
