Removal of Agricultural Tie and Erection of a Large Replacement Dwelling in Roston
Planning & Design Practice (PDP) recently secured full planning consent for the erection of a large replacement dwelling on a site in Roston, having first successfully obtained planning permission for the removal of an agricultural occupancy condition that restricted the existing property.
Back in June 2008, Derbyshire Dales planning committee unanimously voted in favour of PDP’s application to lift the occupancy condition. This was followed later that year with an application for the demolition of the existing property and the erection of a large, three-storey, traditionally designed dwelling with detached double garage. The application was approved in late 2008 under delegated powers by Derbyshire Dales District Council.
Andrew Gore of Planning & Design Practice said:
Successfully lifting the agricultural occupancy condition required a thorough study into the history of the site as well as a strong planning statement which demonstrated that a functional requirement for the agricultural tie no longer existed. The statement also questioned the circumstances that surrounded the initial imposing of the occupancy condition back in the 1960’s. Given the size of the existing plot, along with a strong awareness of local planning policy, we were then able to secure permission for a significantly larger dwelling that the existing building. The design of the dwelling reflects the late 19th Century rural character of the local built environment found in Roston.
