Countryside Planning Permission & Rural Dwellings
Gaining Planning Permission in the countryside for dwellings is still possible if there is an essential need for them. Government policy outlined in PPS7 (Planning Policy Statement 7) includes tests that must be satisfied. Individual Local Authorities may also have local policies. This is one area in planning where financial data will be required.

Cases have traditionally been agricultural but could include equine and other rural businesses where accommodation is required on site.
The Acorus Service can range from initial advice, business plans, appraisals, preparation and handling of applications. We can also design the dwelling.
