Pulsar 2.2m short height observatory dome (flat roof installation)

[daaveyboy]

Can anybody who has a 2.2m short height observatory dome (flat roof installation) Tell me what the measurement is from the roof to the highest point of the dome is.

I am in the middle of building a brick observatory and after talking to my local council I need to keep the overall height to no more than 2.5 mts from the concrete base to the top of the dome,if it is over I will need planning permision. As I am about 1.3mts high at the moment I just need to check if I am over or under a finished height of the magical 2.5mt.

You should be able to work it out from these:

Looks like 1390mm

If it's more than 2m from the boundary, I think you're allowed up to 3m.

But those might be the old design - the new one could be slightly different. Send Gary at Pulsar an email and ask.

As for planning - if no-one objects within 4 years, you're OK anyway. Are they likely to?
