Field Shelters - planning ?

[Bestdogdash]

Does anyone know if one needs planning consent for field shelters ?

Are there any particular types/brands that avoid the necessity ?

Thanks !

If they are mobile no.
We live in an area of "Outstanding Natural Beauty". We have bee in touch with our planners who do have preferences for styles - overhangs etc and also prefer green electric fencing!!
So we've sort of worked in their guidelines.
But our shelter is mobile and we move it ever 3 months.
There was a case in 2001, Purbeck District Council issued an enforcement notice to a Mr Bennet to remove a mobile shelter. This failed and can results can be seen in Appeal A: APP/B1225/C/01/1057144.

Providing they are mobile and can be moved regularly, then you don'y need planning.
