Prior Notification of Straw Building

Objective:

To seek planning via prior notification for an agricultural straw barn which will adjoin the existing cluster of agricultural buildings on site. 

Proposal:

The client instructed Foxes Rural to prepare an application for the development of an agricultural building which met the criteria of permitted development. Our client will use the building to provide a dry, safe, and secure area for the storage of straw, enabling more control over marketing throughout the year and improve farming efficiency by 25% to prevent weathered losses of bales. 

Local Planning Authority:

Maldon District Council

What the consultant Says


The client’s cattle herd commanded further straw storage to prevent weathering and losses to the crop.
