Planning application. Stock photo
A HOUSEHOLDER has been allowed to retain a garden shed that was installed without planning permission.
New Forest District Council has approved a retrospective application relating to a detached house in Foxbury Close, Hythe.
A report to councillors said the shed was in the front garden, close to the front boundary.
The report described it as fairly prominent and out of keeping but said it was in a corner of the garden.
"Being only 2.5 metres in height, and modest in size, it does not appear dominant in this location and therefore is not significantly harmful to the character of the area," it said.
The application did not result in any letters of objection.
