Brilliant appeal decision through recently! Our client had, without planning permission, sited a residential lodge on a Green Belt site at considerable expense. We were tasked with lodging an appeal against the relevant enforcement notice with the aim of securing the retention of the lodge. Our case put forward very special circumstances based around benefits […]

Great to get some approvals across the line over the last week or so, including: – Conversions and extensions to a barn in Holmesfield to form a single dwelling. – Construction of a garage in the Green Belt, Darrington (the client had previously received a refusal prior to our involvement). – Craft ale bars in […]

Planning permission secured for a Green Belt infill development of two dwellings near Pontefract, West Yorkshire! We were required to demonstrate a legitimate village location (with reference to the case of Wood vs SoS, etc). Also managed to negotiate part of the site falling within Flood Zone 2. A really pragmatic and helpful approach from […]

A great appeal decision in the bag for our clients in Scarcroft, Leeds. They had a simple application for a domestic extension refused on the grounds of potential harm to nearby trees. The decision was directly contrary to the findings of specialist arboricultural findings. Thankfully, the Inspector agreed with our justification and our clients are […]

Wakefield MDC formally adopted their new Local Plan yesterday – an important step forward for the area and something that will have a significant impact on how current/ new applications will be handled by the relevant planning officers.
