Agricultural Building via Permitted Development

Objective:

To achieve permission for an enclosed steel portal farmed agricultural building, for the use of both straw storage and machinery storage. 

Proposal:

Previously our client copped all the straw and left it in the field; therefore, they instructed us to prepare an application to create an area which will provide dry storage for straw, resulting in reduced losses of weathered bales and improve farming efficiency by 25%. The new building will allow our client to meet the growing demand for straw bales and to increase the profitability of the business. 

Local Planning Authority:

Brentwood Borough Council

What the consultant Says


A new general purpose agricultural building was essential for this farming business. Some previous landscaping and design work had been undertaken which aided in the siting of this building.
