planning permision needed for my metal garden shed?

I've just moved house and all my tools etc are currently in the loft doing no one any good. So, I want to build a shed to work in.

I've seen a metal garden shed from Asgard, which is perfect as its roughly 5 by 3 so would fit in my garden nicely..the only thing I'm worried about is if theres any planning permissions I'd need as it says i'd have to put a concrete base down..

Do you think something like that would be an issue?

Hi

I have one of the Asgard sheds (I got the biggest one they do online www.asgardsss.co.uk - I Think it was called the Gladiator) 7ft wide and 7ft high. No permission was needed (I checked), I just informed the neighbours out of good manners. Enjoy your shed!!!

Hi John, In most cases shed s and outbuildings in residential gardens are covered by permitted development rights and do not need a planning application. For the spoecific size and area requirements on planning permissions for sheds and outbuildings see below.

Hi John. I can confirm Scotts story, I also bought an Asgard from www.asgardsss.co.uk shed after double checking with the council. You do not need planning permission to put one up. Just check with the neighbours that it deos not block a view or light etc. out of manners really.
