​

This scheme only applies to larger single-storey rear extensions which are permitted until 30 May 2019. This means that extensions of between four and eight metres for detached houses and between three and six metres for all other houses, must go through this process.

​

In this instance the neighbours had no objections and no concerns were raised by the Planning Department at Telford & Wrekin Council allowing the applicant to progress the project.
