Maximum size shed allowed without planning permission?

Damo810

Hello,

I have have a question for you lot. On our current farm we have a cattle shed (with solid floor and slanted roof). Now the current shed is 52 X 16Ft. The plan was to put another side to the shed, making the 'A' style roof. The new side will only come out about 10Ft, making the shed 52 X 26Ft.

My question for you is, would this shed be to big to be fine without planning permission or what is the maximum size allowed with planning permission?

Thanks,
Damien.

Buildings and Structures

The provision of the following types of agricultural buildings and structures
is exempted development:
A roofed structure housing cattle, sheep, donkeys, horses, deer or rabbits,
provided that its floor area does not exceed 200 square metres and that the
total floor area of all Type 1 structures within the farmyard complex (or 100
metres of it) does not exceed 300 square metres;

Depends on surrounding buildings on your farm and possibly on neighbours. You can build a farm building up to 200m2 exempt up to a threshold of 300m2 total farm buildings within 100m. For example if you want to build 150m2 but you or your neighbours have 160m2 of farm buildings already within 100m of where you want to build then you need planning as the total exceeds 300m.

Google farm buildings planning permission and you will find it explained better.

not meaning to hijack but I have two derelict A-roof sheds side by side sharing the centre wall. what I would like to do is put one A-roof over the shed using the same outer walls with supports from the centre wall and eliminate the valley between the roofs.

hope I explained it ok. is planning needed as I would not be increasing the m2?
