planning permission would be required but some councils allow certain types of consrvatory without permission
.
no
He would have to apply for Planning Permission to the Local Authority to do that. The Local Authority must then contact you and all other people who may be affected and you have the right to object. Your objection must be considered by the Local Authority Planning Committee and the likelihood is Planning Permission would be refused meaning he could not!
not even without a permit.
no one likes a tattle though either.
In the UK they would need to have planning permission. You can object. There's a right to light if it blocks off a lot of light to your room and it's been there for 20 years.
If he has done so without building regulations having been applied for and granted, there is a very, VERY high probability they will need to take the building down. Not clear though whether this is a permanent or "temporary" structure you are talking about - you should still get in touch with the council immediately and report it as a problem.
They can do it without YOUR permission, if that was your question. However, for most types of building projects in the UK they will need written permission in the form of planning permission or a building warrant, depending on the nature of the structure. Your local authority planning department will be able to provide details of what would be needed in your case.
Its all to do with how it effects your light that you receive ..he should have planning permission anyhow?
not without planning permission, and the local council would have to write to all the neighbours to see if there was any objections, so I'd contact the council to see if planning permission was granted
I see all the lounge bar lawyers have come out of the woodwork over the weekend to answer this. Every time we get a planning question everybody turns into an expert. Trouble is it is the type of question that can have serious consequences if you accept a wrong answer.
Sorry - going off on one there. The thing is that there are a set of regulations that grant what is known as permitted development rights for a wide range of small developments, particularly householders. That is why a lot of small extensions, conservatories, sheds, garages and the like dont not need planning permission as they are exempted. If something is permitted by these regs then there is nothing anyone can do about it whatever effect it has on the neighbours. Tough I know but that is the law as it stands at the moment (and indeed has done for many years). From the info you have given it is not clear precisely what is happening so if you could a better description I may be able to advise you.

its not your local council you have to talk to its the planning office,you even need planning permission to build a garage now,if your neighbour wanted to get planning permission for this you and your neighbours would have got a letter saying what he proposed and if you have any objections about it
All the planning laws have changes just recently ,check with your local town hall ,they will tell you what department you need to be talking to .
i hope this helps .
