&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;Incidental use is a term relevant to UK planning and is closely linked but not the same as ancillary use. Incidental use refers to minor, secondary or complementary uses that are concurrent with main use. For example a garden shed is generally incidental to the use of the garden of a dwelling house, it is normally a relatively temporary building and incidental to the enjoyment of the dwelling house. If the garden shed becomes larger, permanent, more significant, or in extreme cases with uses beyond the storage of equipment such as a workshop or even a separate dwelling, then no longer minor and incidental, it becomes ancillary and potentially considered as a separate use.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Incidental use is often temporary and as such does not significantly impact the overall functioning of the primary use in question. Incidental uses are of a lesser scale and importance when compared to the main use but in many respects there is a fine line or at least common misunderstandings between incidental and ancillary. These differences can become significant in the eyes of planning law, where the authority may consider use as no longer incidental. These types of cases are common in the use of for example outbuildings, annexes and larger sheds.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Essentially, to a large extent whether something is ancillary or incidental can be a matter of interpretation and context, one which planning authorities may also take into consideration neighbours, the surrounding area, and specific policies or regulations. These interpretations can also change over time, depending on previous cases, locally and nationally, as such it is always worthwhile seeking advice on specific cases and how they might be viewed by local authorities before making assumptions.&lt;br /&gt;
