Expert advice for agricultural landowners

Our Planning and Development team regularly provides expert advice on alternative uses for land and property, assessing project proposals to recommend the most appropriate path for achieving a successful outcome.

With a wealth of experience and a deep understanding of farm-based planning matters, we have assisted clients on a diverse range of projects. These include farm building conversions, farm diversification, permitted development, residential development, and renewable energy projects, and have submitted planning applications such as:

• Class Q (Agricultural Building to Residential Use)
• Class R (Agricultural Building to Flexible Business Use)
• Class A (New Agricultural Buildings on units of 5 hectares or more)
• Prior approval (28-day notice) applications for temporary land use
• Full planning
• Outline planning
• Certificate of Lawfulness
• Pre-application advice
• Financial Viability Appraisals

We leverage our network of trusted professional contacts to deliver successful planning applications, working closely with specialists in areas such as architecture, ecology, drainage, noise, and transport.

Our track record in securing planning permission sets us apart, and we are rapidly building a reputation as the go-to consultancy for agricultural landowners across the region.
