I understand that a free standing deck can only protrude 8 feet from the face of the building, but what are the regulations for building a deck on the roof of an existing (and legal) one story extension? Our current extension is 12 feet wide by 11 feet deep and we would ideally like to cover that entire area with a deck and then a staircase down to the garden. We will certainly run things past our architect for the filing, but I would rather start planning what we want now and contact him when we are ready to embark on another renovation project.
