Farm diversion comes in many forms with some of the most popular including:
One of the first steps in considering diversification should be to determine if planning permission would be required and if so the likely chances of success. Most agricultural holdings benefit from some form of permitted development rights which can enable the conversion of agricultural buildings to residential or a flexible commercial use. The benefit of using permitted development rights to diversify is that it should be a simpler, quicker and cheaper route to achieving planning permission. Likewise permission may be granted in locations which would otherwise be considered inappropriate for development.
The team at GFW can help and guide you through the planning process if you are considering diversifying, however we would recommend discussing planning as soon as feasibly possible. Early discussions will allow you to establish the best strategy to obtaining permission. Getting the strategy right from the start could save time and cost in the long run.
