Building dwelling house on old outhouse footprint

Earnshaw · 2018-12-22 19:46:03

Hi there, What are the rules on planning permission if I'm building my dwelling house on the old footprint of an outhouse and milking parlour. Do I need to apply for permission as normal? The new dwelling will be single storey and keeping the traditional character of the old buildings - however it will be a dwelling house.

Yes, you need planning permission - you are building something and/or there is a change of use.

It may cost a bit more to build on such a site, as you will have to demolish the existing building and likely have to deal with existing drainage pipes, foundations, etc.
