Dear gentle reader-sorry-a soft start after the rough thread title.

I get on well with my neighbours and generally keep myself to myself. The neighbour to my right has made a planning application to change to the front of her home and extend. The notification came through months ago and it was a normal window a few feet away from my French doors (no worries I thought thus no objections.)

I live on a cul de sac and their house is at the end so I don’t drive past and I noticed last night when I was doing some house maintenance that what they’re doing so does not match with the plans submitted .
It appears that they are creating a Granny annexe and have put a WC right next to my French doors - like 2 feet away.

I would never have agreed to this at planning stage.

Have I missed something? If plans change can they be submitted without notifying neighbours. I am all for change and improvement but this I’m not happy with.

I have popped a note through the letterbox asking for a face to face last night with my number but as yet nothing.

Ha! We live by those double doors in the summer.

One lounger chair which is aces for sunbathing and a dining table the other side where we always breakfast and eat with doors open

We definitely need a diagram. I can't imagine how your french doors can be so close to the boundary that they can end up being 2 feet (less than a metre!) from your neighbours extension?? French doors normally being to the rear and centre of a house going out to garden/decking/patio!?

Is it the noise of the flush, or is it that you can see toilet user and vice versa? Or both?
I think I might need a diagram!? 😁
