Our client runs a company from the site but also has a couple of tenants within the yard and was looking to provide some new smaller units on the site frontage to be able to let out. Having regard to the roadside frontage our client wanted the maximum flexibility for the permitted uses to allow for uses that needed a more open and visible location. There were some delays with the council, just due to current workloads, but permission was granted with the minimum of fuss.

Gaigers site
This site was the main warehouse and distribution premises for the Devizes based brewery Wadworth & Co Ltd, containing workshops and stabling for shire horses. RCC became involved in this site to act on behalf of the brewery who intended to reorganise their activities and operations whereby the main site would become redundant as a result.
Nursery
Sixpenny Nurseries have a small group of nurseries in Wiltshire. Their lease in Devizes was ending and new premise was a priority. RCC discussed possible options with them but a number of possible sites raised issues concerning the potential impact of the proposed use on traffic and residential amenity of an area.
Rowdy Cow
RCC was asked by the architects for this job (PKA Architects) to assist them by submitting a planning application for a farm diversification proposal. The proposal, on a dairy farm, was to establish a micro ice cream factory within an existing small agricultural building whilst then building an additional linked building to house a café.
