    Wondering has anyone erected an inground trampoline?
    What are the difficulties with embedded one into your garden?
    Also is there any other sellers besides Berg - they seem very expensive?


    Thanks

    I could be wrong, but I seem to remember that you need some sort of planning permission if it's over a certain height.

    I've seen a house built hanging from a tripod so the actual ground area of the structure is less than 9 square feet and so was exempted from requiring planning permission. This was in west Cork and was apparently built by a south african architect who liked the idea of exploiting the loop hole to avoid planning restrictions. Not sure if this exemption is still in place and it may be different from county to county but I think a tree house could also benefit from this type of exempted development. Also there is some exemption for temporary structures.
