That helps a lot, thanks Mike.

I've a feeling that if there's the slightest chance that the council
can screw some money out of me then they're going to take it. However,
if they insist on any formal drawings then I'll abandon the idea.

Cheers


I have just telephoned our Planning Department and asked a few questions:-))
It helps that I am well known and can get the answers :-))

In a Consevation Area, you MUST apply for Planning Permission IF your
greenhouse is MORE than 10 Cubic Metres capacity. TEN CUBIC METRES!!! My
calculations gives it 9.94 Metres if you have a 6ft headroom all over. Most
drop at the sides to 4ft??

I think that is the end of the story :-))

Steam ahead and put your Greenhouse up.

"IF" anyone comes snooping round, quote me and the Isle of Wight Planning
Department and take a copy of this posting :-))

Isle of Wight where we have conservation areas AND AONBs
