Looking good , I am sure the wood building will be better at keeping the damp away , the wood cabins always seem warmer to me when I am working in them .

If you meet the following the criteria then NO planning permission is required. However, it does require building control by the local council.

Single Storey used for storage / leisure
Maximum height of 2.5 metres
NOT form the principal elevation.
NOT have verandas, balconies or raised platforms
NOT near a National Park, Outstanding Natural Beauty or World Heritage Site
NOT Within the curtilage of listed buildings
NOT close to a public sewer or shared pipe
NOT Self contained
NOT exceed 60m2 (internal metric floor area)

I always thought it can't be over 50% of the garden, it looks like you are hitting 80%.

it is actually, go to the Outbuildings mini guide, click the Outbuildings Play button, go to page 5

"Outbuildings and other additions must not exceed 50% of the total area of land around the original house. Sheds and all other outbuildings and extensions to the original house must be included when calculating this 50% limit"

I'm sorry yes your right it does. Luckily I don't have any other additions to the land.

your garden might be 80ft in length but is it the same width all along this length? wish i could do the same and have my own table.

The total surface area of my garden is approx 125m2.
The room I am having built is 45m2 which means I still have around 17m2 of land I can use before I get to the 50% rule.
