Planning
Planning in Kilpedder
Kilpedder is in Wicklow County Council's area, like every town in the county. The rules are national, under Class 3:
- Behind the house. Nothing built forward of the front wall.
- 30 m² in total. The garden room plus any shed, garage or greenhouse already there. It was 25 m² before 27 July 2026.
- 25 m² of garden left to the back or side.
- Height. 3 m with a flat roof, or 4 m with a tiled or slated pitched roof.
- Finish. A structure to the side of the house matches the house.
- Use. Not lived in or slept in, and only for the enjoyment of the house: an office, gym, studio or playroom.
Not sure a room is exempt? Ask Wicklow County Council for a section 5 declaration: its answer in writing. The fee is €80, and the council has a separate form for a Class 3A unit.
