Guest andy64 Posted May 26, 2011 Report Posted May 26, 2011 To be on the safe side i have today applied for planning permission for a pigeon loft in my back garden, i read somewhere that you should...... but even the lady at the council wasn`t sure but i have done it anyway, i don`t see having any problems with my neighbours, people keep allsorts in there back gardens round by me but it will be nice to have something in writing just in case.Did any body on here apply for planning permission for a pigeon loft , i thought because it was a wooden structure you didn`t have to, but apparently if your keeping live stock in it you do!!!
Guest peter4pm Posted May 26, 2011 Report Posted May 26, 2011 i think its basicly a neighbour thing mate ...if your neighbours are fine with it ...its usualy not a problem.
OLDYELLOW Posted May 26, 2011 Report Posted May 26, 2011 it is classed as a non permanent structure , however it must be 1 meter away from all boundary's , however best to get permission off your landlord if renting , and better to comply to building regulations then they can't enforce it's remove saves for heartache later on , also some title deads have a prevention notice on , so not permitted to keep certain animals and yes i applied for permission and was granted and complied with the planning office , at least i know if ever i get a complaint it's all in black and white

ovy1255 Posted May 26, 2011 Report Posted May 26, 2011 New planning rules for log cabins, shed and summerhouses! > Home > News > New planning rules for log cabins, shed and summerhouses!Friday 24 October 2008 2:14 PM New Planning permission regulations have been brought into force in the UK. This article is intended as a starting point for your research into whether or not you requuire planning permission for your log cabins, summerhouses or sheds. First of all, it is important to note that UK planning permission laws changed on 1st October 2008. This means that the following rules and regulations apply to any log cabins, summerhouses and sheds ordered after this date. It is always a good idea to contact and submit plans to your local County Council Planning Officer before building your cabin to check whether planning permission will be required. Below is a rough guideline as to the new planning permission rules: 1. The total area of garden covered must not be more than 50%. 2. The building must not be situated further than the front of your house. 3. Overall height from ground level to ridge must not exceed more than 4 metres. 4. Overall height from ground level to ridge must not exceed more than 2.5 m within a 2 m range of any boundary. A building with overall height exceeding 2.5 m in height and placed within 2 m of any boundary will require planning permission. 5. Height of the eaves must not exceed 2.5 m. 6. No verandas higher than 30cm from ground level. 7. On designated land buildings to the side of a property will require planning permission. (Designated land includes National Parks, The Broads, Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Conservation areas and World Heritage Sites.) 8. Buildings within the grounds of a listed property will require planning permission.

Guest IB Posted May 26, 2011 Report Posted May 26, 2011 If it's rented property from a local Council, there's usually a clause in your missives / lease which states: 'no animals' - unless Council grants permission, which will not be unreasonably withheld. And if your loft is over a certain size you will also need planning permission from the same Council to erect it.
geordie1234 Posted May 26, 2011 Report Posted May 26, 2011 it is classed as a non permanent structure , however it must be 1 meter away from all boundary's , however best to get permission off your landlord if renting , and better to comply to building regulations then they can't enforce it's remove saves for heartache later on , also some title deads have a prevention notice on , so not permitted to keep certain animals and yes i applied for permission and was granted and complied with the planning office , at least i know if ever i get a complaint it's all in black and white So does the whole metre away thing count for your neighbours sheds etc

geordie1234 Posted May 26, 2011 Report Posted May 26, 2011 ask ya mates misses if she wants a trip round anfield an then on to see some baby pigeons hee heeHaha she's no bad bit of a month on her
OLDYELLOW Posted May 26, 2011 Report Posted May 26, 2011 So does the whole metre away thing count for your neighbours sheds etc I'm not sure about that but if there was a boundary dispute im sure if over by an inch they would be told to remove them , although planning permission is set by law councils can have there own by-laws they set themselves , so worth checking out
pjc Posted May 27, 2011 Report Posted May 27, 2011 You won't find anything in the deads where you are Andy.When we moved in this used to be the centre of the Black Market in pork during the war and the pig sty's, boiling pan, hanging hooks and cutting slab are all still here.

Agree Phil i think most people round here kept livestock of some sort years ago (a lot still do), doubt i`ll have any problems........i`d be amazed if i did i can see pigeons flying from my dining room window from two houses in the valley some where
