Important Information

  • You often won't need planning permission to build a summer house, shed, or garden room. You don't need to seek approval if the outbuilding is at the back or side of the house and does not take up more than 50% of the space. It should also be ancillary to the main house and not be constructed as a separate dwelling. If you plan to build within 2 meters of your fence, ensure it isn't taller than 2.5 meters at its highest point.

    It is essential to check the local laws if you plan to build a shed or barn very close to the neighbour's boundary.

    If you plan to build an outbuilding or summerhouse more than 2 meters away from the fence, it can have a maximum height of 4 meters. However, if the house has no apex roof, its size must not exceed 3 metres. Regardless of the type of roof, the eaves should never be higher than 2.5 metres.

    As previously stated, it is necessary to obtain planning permission when constructing on designated land such as Conservation Areas. Regardless of the outbuilding's size, you are expected to have already checked your situation before inquiring.

  • At Charlesworth Oak, we take immense pride in handcrafting each of our products, ensuring they are truly unique. As a result, we cannot guarantee that any item will be an exact replica of another.

    Knots, texture and grain variations, and occasional checks and shakes, are inherent characteristics of wood and may be present in our products. Please understand that we cannot control or guarantee the exact appearance of each board or outcome.

    Additionally, we want to be transparent about the finishes applied to our products. We cannot make any representations, warranties, or guarantees regarding the finishes' precise colour, lustre, or appearance.
