Listed building curtilage
 

Hello,
Does anyone on here have experience of listed building curtilage?
I’ve put up a 6ft wooden fence 12 inches onto my land along a boundary of the neighbour who’s house is grade 2 listed. Apparently the council has told us to apply for permission as it’s within the curtilage of the farmhouse. How far does the curtilage extend? For miles?

Any expert help would be appreciated.

Regards

Jamie

I've no personal knowledge, and I'm sure you've already searched and found this:-

Just buy a series of XC90s and park them nose to tail along the boundary instead of the fence? Should have the same effect without the planning issues.....

Actually Phillip, I’ve done something similar. I’ve purchased a few very tatty caravans for a few pounds and will be putting them along the boundary. Cheaper than applying for permission. I know this sounds petty but this neighbour is the devils incarnate. He’s been abusive and very instrumental in getting our new house refused for permission. Last straw was him cutting the wire off our post and rail fence.

There is always some idiot who will try to beat listed building consent, Not yourself, but you need to apply for listed building consent as I also assume you are located in a conservation zone. My advice to you is follow the law as the fines for not complying with the Local Authorities requirements could lead to very large fines and take my word you will not win. Best of luck.
