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.

Mr Steve Williams, Coate, Devizes

I bought my plot after extensive homework, including a 'pre planning' application to the local authority. What followed was an unprecedented series of law changes and heartbreak trying to resolve my planning application...until I contacted Richard and Vicky at RCC Town Planning. They completely understood the 'phosphate mitigation' issues amongst many other complex uncertainties, not mentioned by the authority. The professional understanding and forward thinking aspects of approach is beyond anything I’ve experienced in over 45 years as a tradesman. Every single scenario thrown at them was successfully addressed. I cannot possibly do justice to their kindness, professionalism and experience in such a short summary and recommend their service with passion. Absolutely fantastic, with planning approval issued. I will remain forever grateful to them.

It’s been a long journey but we finally got there!

Richard has been right at so many turns during the process of our project to get the planning permission we wanted, we couldn't have done it without him and his team.

He recommended a great Heritage specialist who was an instrumental part of the team and then wrote a perfect report to accompany the appeal.

Accompanied by the low energy information this enabled the inspectorate officer to see the same sense as we all saw from the very beginning.

We have been and will continue to use Richard and RCC Town Planning in the future.

E & V Kidner, Dauntsey

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.
