Conservatory build advice

Hi, I have a property (1900s large semi) where the other half of the semi already has a large (at least 3m deep) conservatory coming off the rear original patio doors, and is built up to the shared boundary wall. It was built a number of years before we moved in - at least 10 years ago. We'd like to be able to extend out with a conservatory to the same sort of depth, but are there likely to be limitations just because they got there first? Of course we wouldn't want to fall out with the neighbours, but just wondering what would be permissible without planning permission. If we only extended out to 3m as a single storey either with a conservatory or extension, would we even need to inform the planning department as long as we ensure we stay 1 metre away from the shared boundary wall?
Thanks for any help you can give me.
