Hello,
I would like to add some non growing screening to my 6ft garden fence
to
give around 3ft of extra screening.

If your boundary fence exceeds 2 metres in height, (1 metre adjoining a
highway) you need planning permission. It is only growing plants that
can
exceed that height without planning restrictions.

Does that apply to semi-permanent additions as well?


Strictly speaking,yes. But unless there is a formal complaint, the council
will take no action.

Add 60cm of in situ built trellis in tile batten. Cheaper and more robust
than expanding or manufactured trellis
