MikeD":206ryxs9 said:I guess the tricky part with the OP's plan is that he (I think) wants to bridge between the house wall and a wall on the boundary, so water run-off isn't as straightforward as adding guttering to a facia. You'd have to have some sort of channel/gutter on your side of the wall.
MikeD":206ryxs9 said:I think you could probably put shed/greenhouse guttering on top of the crossways roof beams up against the boundary wall, with lengthways ones to support the roofing sheets -- if the lengthways bits are tall enough then the roof will end up sufficiently above the gutter. Depends on the boundary wall being tall enough, and indeed it being your wall
MikeD":206ryxs9 said:Bear in mind that anything fully enclosed will count as part of your permitted development rights, so if you ever want an extension you've used up some of the size you could have had. Unless they've changed all the rules again, I can't be bothered to keep up
gtRTSdh":2ccssasj said:Yes this exactly, the wall of the house is straight and the garden wall is flat topped brick so about 8" wide. I'm thinking that I am going to have to install a channel on top of the wall to divert water to a butt/drain. If I have to use supporting columns then the space will be restricted sufficiently to scrap the idea.
