Positioning of window post planning approval
Have had work started on a loft conversion, rear dormer and two front velux type windows. Was a pain getting through planning, as it was initially rejected and then granted on appeal. We’re in a new build property with all permitted development removed, even changing patios or garden sheds or any kind of AC installation technically needs planning permission (not that anyone has bothered).
We were given two conditions:
- Start work within 3 years of decision
- “…shall be carried out in accordance with the
following approved plans”
The plans have one of the front lights positioned for stairwell, high up on the roof, and the second provides light to a new room in the loft space.
Feel like I know the answer already, but is there any leeway in positioning both windows so that they provide light to the room? Or is the condition stringent in that it has to be per the plans?
