Planning

  • Behind the house. Not in front of the front wall.
  • 30 m² in total. The pergola plus every shed, garage, greenhouse and garden structure already there.
  • 25 m² of garden left to the back or side of the house.
  • 3 m high, or 4 m with a tiled or slated pitched roof.

Those are the Class 3 limits for garden structures, as amended by S.I. No. 338 of 2026. A protected structure or a house in a conservation area is a question for the council. The full rules are on our sister site, pergolabuilders.ie.
