Recommencing Barn Conversion after 25 years, Norfolk
October 2023
​
Certificate of Lawful Existing Use granted, establishing that conversion works to agricultural barns had been lawfully commenced under a 1990s planning permission.
Our client was purchasing barns with the intention of completing the development. However, the original planning consent had been subject to amendments, and the Council retained only partial records. We successfully secured a Certificate of Lawful Development, establishing that works had—on the balance of probabilities—been carried out in accordance with the approved scheme.
Following this, we submitted Section 73 and non-material amendment applications to establish amended access and design details in accordance with the client's requirements, allowing the project to move forward after a 25-year hiatus.
