Granny Annexe Planning Permission in New Alresford

The New Alresford Granny Annexe Planning Position

Three routes exist for a New Alresford granny annexe, and which one applies depends on genuine facts about the structure, not assumptions. The Caravan Sites Act 1968 defines a caravan by size, 20 metres by 6.8 metres, 3.05 metres internal height, and mobility, capable of being moved by road in one or two sections.

Class E permitted development covers incidental outbuildings in New Alresford, but excludes anything used as separate, self-contained living accommodation, the introduction of sleeping facilities used independently changes everything.

Where your New Alresford annexe doesn’t fit either of the simpler routes, a full planning application is the honest answer, and we confirm this properly rather than guess. A New Alresford annexe needing full planning permission usually needs both, our Building Regulations drawings in New Alresford service covers the technical compliance side, and our structural calculations in New Alresford service covers the engineering detail.

Common Annexe Planning Questions in New Alresford

What determines if my New Alresford annexe needs planning permission?

This genuinely depends on your specific plans for New Alresford, we check whether the structure is mobile, incidental, or self-contained before advising either way.

What size limits apply to a caravan-style annexe in New Alresford?

The Caravan Sites Act 1968 sets the limits, 20 metres long, 6.8 metres wide, 3.05 metres internal height, and the structure must be moveable by road in one or two sections, we check whether your New Alresford plans genuinely meet this.

What outbuilding rules apply to a New Alresford annexe?

It depends on genuine use, an incidental New Alresford outbuilding can qualify under Class E, but introducing real sleeping accommodation used independently takes it outside permitted development regardless of size.

What makes an annexe a separate dwelling in New Alresford?

Genuine independence is the test in New Alresford, if the annexe could function as a separate home on its own, full planning permission is almost always the realistic route.

Is a Lawful Development Certificate worth it in New Alresford?
