From Livestock Units to Farm Diversification
We are perhaps best known for our dominance in the agricultural sector. It is estimated that we contribute to approximately 50% of all intensive livestock units built across England and Wales. However, our expertise extends far beyond the farmyard.
We provide a comprehensive turnkey planning package for Glamping and Tourism ventures, helping landowners turn redundant fields into thriving holiday parks or caravan sites. We also specialise in Class Q Permitted Development, successfully converting redundant agricultural buildings into residential dwellings.
Supporting the Green Transition and Industrial Growth
As the rural economy evolves, so do we. We have a proven track record in Renewable Energy installations, including biomass boilers, onshore wind, ground-mounted solar, and Anaerobic Digestion (AD) plants.
Furthermore, our commercial and industrial portfolio is rapidly expanding. We have successfully secured permissions for everything from steel fabrication units and builders' merchants to children's nurseries and farm shops. Whether your project is on an allocated industrial site or involves a complex change of use in a rural setting, we have the insight
