Planning Success!
Following a previous planning refusal and dismissal of an appeal, we successfully secured planning permission to convert an agricultural building into a residential dwelling.
The key to success was demonstrating that the existing building was structurally substantial and capable of conversion, while preserving its agricultural character and original form.
By carefully limiting the domestic curtilage and protecting the site's rural setting, we were able to demonstrate that the proposed conversion could be achieved without harming the surrounding countryside.
A great result, showcasing the importance of a well-considered planning strategy and a clear understanding of the site's rural context.

We’re pleased to share that we have recently secured planning permission for the replacement of two derelict equine storage buildings with a new, purpose-built equine storage building for a local equestrian business.

The site is located within the Green Belt, and the proposal was carefully designed to respond to the requirements of rural planning policy and the character of the surrounding area.

After detailed negotiation with the LPA and modifications to initial proposals, alongside a submission of further ecological information, planning permission was successfully granted.

The scheme represents a reduction in footprint on the site, and in the green belt, and was design of a rural appearance to complement the character of the surrounding area.

We recently secured obtained prior approval for the upward extension of a single storey detached bungalow in the Cheshire countryside under Schedule 2 Part 2 Class AA of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development Order) 2015. By demonstrating that both the property and the proposed works met the relevant criteria and limitations, we successfully established that the proposal benefited from permitted development rights.

Another Green Belt planning success!!

Earlier this year, we received planning consent for the construction of an orangery extension on a residential site within the Cheshire East Green Belt.

The scheme had previously been taken to appeal following the Council’s concern that the applicant could potentially implement both the proposed scheme and a lawful fallback scheme elsewhere on the site.

Our resubmitted scheme addressed this issue by providing a suitable unilateral undertaking creating a secure legal mechanism to prevent both schemes from being implemented.

Planning permission was subsequently granted for the client’s desired scheme.

Take a look at our completed visual impression of the scheme below.

We recently obtained retrospective planning permission for the construction of an agricultural building within the Staffordshire Green Belt.

The application demonstrated that the building was modest in scale, agrarian in character and appearance, and necessary to support agricultural activity on the holding.

As a result, Staffordshire Moorlands District Council approved the application, confirming that the development was policy compliant.

A great result for our client and another example of how careful planning and a clear policy-led approach can help navigate Green Belt development.

Following permission in late 2023, works commenced on site this spring for the demolition of an existing commercial stable building with construction of a new bungalow. The site lies in the green belt and fell under green belt exception policy being the partial or complete redevelopment of a previously developed site. The scheme was to try and create a new traditional designed bungalow which takes advantage of the views over the surrounding countryside and was of a style appropriate for its green belt location. The material palette consists of brickwork and slate roof, which match similar residential properties and rural buildings in the area. Works are progressing well and the external building shell is complete and the roof is on. Once the windows and doors are in, the building can be made watertight and internal works commenced.

Check out the visuals for a scheme for which we obtained planning permission earlier this year.

The proposals included an extension to an existing dwelling and the conversion of a barn into two residential properties, on a site identified by the local authority as a non-designated heritage asset.
The design took a sensitive approach, retaining the barn’s agrarian character whilst removing a non-original link between the house and barn. This approach gained the support of the Council’s Heritage Officer.

We’re really pleased to see the approved proposals brought to life through these visuals!!

Our run of successful appeal decisions continues!!!

Last week, we secured planning consent at appeal for the demolition of existing barns and construction of 2 no. barns for use as residential dwellings in the Cheshire countryside. The original application had been refused with the Council considering he site to be an unsustainable location for new residential development. In our statement of case, we demonstrated that the site's proximity to an existing settlement, together with a a regular bus service to Congleton, would help to minimise reliance on the car and associated journeys. The Inspector agreed that the previously developed nature of the site and the local housing shortage outweighed the shortcomings in its locational sustainability, allowing the appeal and granting planning permission.

Another great result for our client!

We were pleased to receive planning and listed building consent at the end of July for the er****on of two detached dwellings alongside a single storey extension to a Grade II listed thatched barn, now in residential use. The extension adopts a contemporary design approach, incorporating standing-seam zinc cladding. While contrasting with the traditional form and materials of the listed building, the simple, utilitarian form and use of zinc were considered appropriate to the site's rural setting, drawing reference from modern agricultural buildings. The scheme also introduces two distinct new dwelling designs, creating a more organic and less formal pattern of development than the previously approved scheme. We’re delighted to have secured consent for a scheme that carefully balances the character of the existing listed building with a contemporary approach to new development.

We are pleased to share another planning success for a domestic client for the demolition of an existing single storey utility/ store extension and its replacement with a new single storey extension containing porch, shower room, rear utility area and storage space. The scheme was appropriate in its design and layout and in its material palette ensuring no harm on surrounding amenity.
