SUBMITTED: He shed, she shed

Plans to demolish two sheds to make way for a new shed at Findochty home has been submitted.

Neil Dicks lodged the application for retrospective consent after work had already started at Earndale 7 Netherton Terrace.

A block shed will be erected at rear with a carport at the front with a metal-clad roof and a larch overlap cladding.

One of the sheds earmarked to be demolished at Findochty home.

He explained: “The works had started due to a blocked main house drain that run underneath the old wooden sheds.

“The drains were fixed and then I didn’t realize that I needed planning permission to build, as the proposal doesn’t require under normal conditions except in
Findochty this is in a conservation area so it does require.

“On finding out I have halted construction until we get planning permission
the block construction for the walls is the only element that has been done to date.”

Further planning applications can be viewed using Moray Council’s portal.
