Re: Retrospective Planning Permission
Firstly, how many years ago was the extension built? If more than seven years, then Planning Enforcement cannot compel them to knock it. (Though it is unlikely that they would do so anyway).
At this stage, all you can do is object (assuming you still have time). You'll probably be unsuccessful regarding the demolition of the extension but if you are successful in your appeal, then they may not be able to successfully sell the house - as banks generally do not allow mortgages on unauthorised developments.
