My new shed is 5m wide, 6m long, and I will have to re-weld the steel

It's going to be 750mm from a boundary.


That's the more limiting bit - at 2m+ you can have a max height of 4m
with a pitched roof. ISTR it also needs to be of a "substantially non
combustible" construction when close to a boundary. (although that seems
to be a rule pretty much universally ignored with near enough every
wooden shed in the land hard up against a boundary.


Can't seem to find any reference to the 'combustible' bit on the planning
portal. But found this:

I'm planning a small shed (15m2) and it seems that from that discussion the
best bet, to say within regs, is to check with the local council.


Nah best bet is to read up & just do it.

Ask them & you'll just be put through the cash milking permission
mill...
