Neighbours living near a house in Redland are furious after owners built a home office and gym in a garden “slightly larger” than approved plans. The outbuilding might now have to be torn down after an investigation by planning enforcement, pending a decision next week.
A home office and gym was built in the garden of a basement flat on Elliston Road in Redland. But planners at Bristol City Council say the building was constructed 80cm larger than the plans they gave permission for.
The owners of the flat must now apply again for planning permission for the outbuilding. If it’s refused, the building might have to be demolished. Councillors will vote on whether to approve permission during a development control A committee on Wednesday, July 5.
