Many of the homeowners we visit make the mistake of believing that the new scheme for larger extensions the 'Neighbourhood Consultation Scheme' is an automatic right and that they can build either a 6m or 8m deep extension. The reality is that it completely depends on whether or not your neighbours object to the proposal. If they do, then the chances are that the application will be refused as it will go against the Supplementary Planning Guidance (SPG). In most situations, this scheme relies entirely on your neighbours not raising an objection. The benefit is, If they don't object, then you can achieve far larger extensions than would be approved under a normal Householder Application.
