Hmm yeah ok. I'll be using French doors so possible more weather proof, and again, facing away from the prevailing wind in a pretty sheltered spot. Was laying out a new design last night and trying to stick to whole/ half sheets for the roof.

Biggest decision now is whether go for flat roof within PD or go for planning and 2-3m mono-pitched roof. The latter appeals as it'd give bike hanging space in the eaves. Having a poke about on planning portal shows some precedents but usually in bigger gardens than ours.

Put an application in - start building - if you get permission - go higher - if not stick at 2.5m ? Possible to design it like this - bit more work I guess - potentially annoying if planners hold things up.

I would allow for a decent eaves 100mm say over the doors just to keep the rain off. I fucked this up on my build (in progress) - so i've not got as much as I would have liked.

Thanks. Yeah was looking at yours for inspiration although ours will be a bit bigger as it has to be shed/home office/occasional bunk house. I think I have >100mm overhang on the design so far. Not sure I fancy a 2 stage design, but I guess the slab will be the same whatever.
