Class Q is for Change of Use from Agricultural to Residential; the plans are informative only so you can do as you wish really. This is largely untested though as rarely do conversions take a different appearance to that submitted as part of the Class Q. Just check the prior approval decision and make sure it doesn't say that it must be constructed as per the submitted drawings.Hi all, happy Christmas etc!!
I have planning under class q for a steel portal frame, however since taking down adjoining barn it has a much better aspect on one side. I would like to increase the window size, and I would like to change the internal layout, happy to keep same room dimensions but just with the communal rooms being in the area with better view and the bedrooms where the communal area was.
It's a condition for me to have zinc roof, and my plans the sides as timber clad to upper elevations (previously fibre cement). However I think continuing the zinc would make sense rather than introduce new material. Is this going to be a problem.
I had hoped to start groundworks in the next couple of weeks. How do I go about permission for the above or can I get it retrospectively once build complete/underway?
