Loopholes in planning laws


An interesting article on the subject at Gizmodo - neither we nor they suggest breaking the law but it's an intriguing roundup of ways some of them can be bent a little... Here's a snippet:
Of course, there are tons of reasons to subvert (or break) the law when it comes to buildings: Sometimes they are well-meaning, other times, they are deeply misguided and illegal, and it's worth pointing out that building code itself should never be broken. But it's easy to get excited about well-placed loopholes—especially if it means you could build (or help build) your own space.

  1. So very true. Not the least of it is the TV programme that recently stated that a separate residential building DIDN''T need planning permission if it was below 2.5 m in height. That information is simply wrong.....
