    Conservatories in Dennistoun

    Dennistoun's predominantly tenement flats mean conservatory projects are limited to ground-floor flats with garden access, with more options in the post-war housing further out.

    Can a Dennistoun flat have a conservatory?

    Only ground-floor flats with access to a private or back-court garden can add a conservatory in Dennistoun.

    Post-war semi-detached housing on the fringes has its own garden and generally retains some permitted development rights.

    What consent is needed in Dennistoun?

    Flats have no permitted development rights in Scotland, so a Dennistoun tenement conservatory normally needs planning permission regardless of size.

    Shared back-court ownership also means other proprietors' agreement is usually needed.
