Pink Floyd guitarist embroiled in planning row over "intrusive" garden shed
Briefly

David Gilmour, at the age of 79, submitted a retrospective planning application for a new shed in Hampstead after removing a summerhouse and an old shed. The new structure has faced backlash from local residents, who deem it obtrusive and more intrusive than its predecessor. The Hampstead Hill Gardens Residents' Association formally objected, claiming it violates planning consent by being constructed too close to the boundary. Complaints suggest that the shed obstructs vegetation cover and calls for modifications to allow for wildlife space behind the structure have been made.
The new green shed is claimed to be 'of modest size' and designed to ensure no loss of privacy or overshadowing. However, it has been branded obtrusive and overbearing by disgruntled neighbours.
Hampstead Hill Gardens Residents' Association urged Camden Council to reject Mr Gilmour's application, referring to the new shed as visually and physically intrusive, asserting it significantly violates the original planning consent.
