Description

A range of agricultural buildings with planning applications submitted.
This Lot comprises several historic and modern agricultural buildings which are now surplus to requirements. The total area to be converted under the residential planning applications is 18,407ft² and the area to be demolished is 18,645ft².

For planning and descriptive purposes, the farmyard area has been divided into a northern and southern part, as two planning applications have been submitted since 2020 and prior to that a Class Q application on the south yard was approved in 2019.

(North): This application largely covers the conversion of the historic buildings, including the Threshing Barn, Annex, the Oast and one modern barn conversion in the Coldstore building. This application has not been decided but is available on the Ashford Borough Council website portal, reference 20/01240/AS.

(South): This application 20/01242/AS covers the conversion of the cold stores and pack house into 3 attached and 1 detached dwelling. These buildings already have the benefit permission to convert to five dwellings under two Class Q prior approvals 19/01629/AS and 19/01630/AS. These approvals consented four attached dwelling houses fronting Lower Lees Road and a detached conversion.
