Farm Reservoir

Objective:

To seek planning via permitted development for a farm reservoir. 

Proposal:

To construct a cut and fill designed reservoir for the use as summer irrigation for the agricultural crops on our client’s farm. The success of our proposal meant the reservoir predominantly increased profitability by enhancing the area of root crops grown. 

Local Planning Authority:

Tendring District Council

What the consultant Says


This reservoir was required to enable the client to expand the volume and variety of root crops being grown on the farm. The diversion of overhead power cables was required to make this scheme deliverable.
