This extension was done in 2007 over a lean to. I asked to see planning but estate agent said no need for planning as it was where the lean to was. Is that true? Thanks in advance!

They will claim it’s permitted development, it might be but there are a whole loads of reasons why it mightn’t be. Ask for their certificate of lawful development (not required but good practice).

Then separately check building regs, which does not overlap with PD. Need to jump through both hoops!

@NickCJ I viewed it tonight, it's best and finals by 11am (bloody bristol market). What's PD? will have a Google and look into building regs.
So would you not buy it without some evidence or certainty which would help you when you come to sell it?
Cheers for the info
