3- You don't, but you need freeholder's permission. Usually your lease will mention this.
Ultimately, if you change your flat layout and touch structural walls you may want to have the lease plan updated or an addendum inserted, according to what has been authorised.

Thanks :)
I have a lease with the management company which I am 1/5 of, who themselves have a head lease with the freeholder. The freeholder is absent and I wouldn't know how to contact them. Management co permission/addendum should be easy but really not sure on the freeholder bit

Easy in difficulty, expensive in money and time, as Usually this can only be done via respective sollicitors.
The mangement company should be able to guide you. This will demand effort from them which is unsual, so be firm and patient.
