Which is extremely unlikely.

Regarding sheds the issues a

- Size

- Proportion of garden covered by all outbuildings and additional
developments.

- Height

- Distance from house. material used may be relevant here.

- Distance from road


Unless an absolute monstrosity is constructed, a typical shed or
summerhouse will not fall foul of any of these.

It also has to be said that there are large numbers of instances where
a shed may fail on one or other of these technicalities and the
planning authority won't bother.

For example, near me there is an instance where the bottoms of the
gardens of some houses back onto a road but with normal 2m fencing.
All of them have at least one shed or greenhouse at the bottom of the
garden. Technically, these are too close to the road, but it's a
non-issue to the planners.
