think it depends on % of proposed exstension against your existing property. Limit used to be 15% - not sure if this is still true. Why not give your planning office a call - normally very helpful.

They're treated just as any other extension as far as PP is concerned. Within certain limits, it may be "permitted development" - (no PP needed), but check it out here .......................

Those volume restrictions don't apply now, Tony. Whole new load of simpler rules now :o)

Also bear in mind that irrespective of whether you need PP, you will require Building Regs approval if either the area is greater than 30 square metres and/or you intend to remove the original external doors between the existing dwelling and the new structure.
