Planning
Planning consent was granted in 2019 (ref. 18/00774/FULMAJ) for change of use of land from agricultural to equestrian use, formation of racing stable complex including new dwelling for horse trainer, residential accommodation block for staff, horse stable block, new access from the B4000 and associated infrastructure. The unit shall be used as an establishment for commercial equestrian training, and shall not be used for other commercial equestrian purposes including as a livery, for breeding, or as a riding school. The present owner has already part-implemented the consent and has discharged the planning conditions which include:
- Construction method statement
- Archaeological Survey and works
- Construction of new access to highway
- Foundations for staff accommodation
- Drainage design and works
At the time of writing, the only remaining matter is the Nutrient Neutrality provision for which there is now a defined route plan, and it is for the purchaser to decide upon which scheme they prefer.
