One other factor that you may wish to consider is that there is a
30m^2 floor area limit for construction of a detached garage, below
which Building Regulations do not apply.

This is what I did, designed the garage so it was just under the
maximum size. Big, big mistake (see previous reply).


I believe that for BR purposes internal rather than external
dimensions apply....


If it *is* internal, I could probably comply, although - since I'm going to
have to build over a public sewer - I think BR will apply anyway!

Of course planning permission is another discussion.
You will switch that on by virtue of size and probably height.
