Free standing definitely sounds like the better option. Hope the construction goes well :-)

FYI - Given that the wall is part of a building, it will definitely be on the other side of the boundary
(i.e. not split down the middle of the external skin of brickwork or any pokery jiggery like that). It is my
understanding (a building surveyor will be able to answer this with more certainty) that you are able to bolt
into the wall, however works protection notices would need to be provided to the owners of that existing
adjacent structure, along with a copy of the certificate of compliance (for whatever proposed
alterations/additions may be), plans, and computations, all of which would need to be approved by the
owner of that building... i.e. a lot of effort to build a woodie IF you are so inclined as to do it by the book.
