Lower Green Farm

RCC has been involved in numerous planning applications for replacement dwellings. With replacement dwellings planners are mainly considering the increase in size of the dwelling, its design, impact on the landscape and character of the area. In this instance our client had bought the bungalow shown in the photographs which also came with surrounding paddocks. The proposal was for a replacement two storey dwelling but with a contemporary design.

The initial design proposed by the client and their architect was always going to be a difficult scheme to gain support from locals and planners which turned out to be the case. RCC therefore suggested an alternative design route which the architect and client agreed with. The result was the scheme illustrated by the drawing extract and 3D images created.

The subsequent planning application was submitted by RCC and approved under delegated powers with no local objection and within the normal timescales. Ultimately our clients have achieved the floor space they required along with an attractive and contemporary designed house.

Richard and his team navigated us through a complex Class Q application, converting a number of steel frame agricultural buildings into dwellings. Once this was approved, we then successfully obtained full planning permission using the Class Q as the fallback position.

Throughout the process RCC have offered thorough and practical advice. They have been meticulous with every detail and we always had full confidence in them to help us reach our ambitions for the site.

We received regular updates whilst the applications were under consultation and Richard managed the communication with the council professionally and in a timely manner.

We are incredibly grateful for all your hard work, thank you.

After doing a lot of research on planning consultants, we felt Richard Cosker and his team were best placed to help us achieve planning permission for our new build house.

It was a complicated application as the land was classed as agricultural with a Boarding Cattery business running on the site too.

Richard and Jenny are so knowledgeable and professional, and the planning statement they submitted left little room for the council to argue a negative outcome! We were granted outline planning permission for a 3 bedroom house, followed a few months later by full planning permission for our dream house.

We cannot recommend this company enough, very happy clients, thank you!

Caroline Holloway, West Lavington

RCC Town Planning have been unreservedly helpful throughout the whole process of planning. They are always very friendly and completely professional. Our application was by no means straight forward.

They work brilliantly with all other professionals involved, architects, engineers, etc, a real team effort, making sure all points are covered by the relevant parties and never missing a small detail that add to and might make a difference to the success of the application.

Their own report was also excellent, gained by their wide experience and knowledge. I have no hesitation in recommending them.
