Description

I am writing to request retrospective permission for a minor alteration to my outbuildings. The two storage sheds are both mine and are joined side by side. One shed door opens directly into my private garden, while the other opens into the communal corridor/alley adjacent to the garden. I have removed the non-structural internal dividing brick wall between the two sheds to create one larger storage space. The exterior footprint remains unchanged, the walls have been cemented, and internal shelving has been added for storage. I would be grateful if a housing officer or surveyor could assess the work and consider it for retrospective approval. Data via plota.co.uk
