Hi

We have an old shed in the front garden put in by the previous owners, it never had planning permission but would have needed it. It's been there for 10 + years.

Can I replace this as it's passed it useful life without any planning? I would like to rebuild in brick (same size and place) again would i need planning permission?

If I apply for PP it's likely to be rejected given the area.

Thanks

Mark
 
In a lot of cases demolishing something and then rebuilding on the same spot will require planning as it is seen as a total removal of a building and becoming a bare plot again rather than extending or converting a building. Have you checked if you can do it under Permitted Development rules ?
 
Thanks, front garden so no PD (odd plot so makes sense to have it on the front)
 
Thanks, ok guess I can replace like with like without planning permission?

Still "no" if your cunning plan is to replace it bit by bit to get a new building.
