Planning appeal decision

Allowed24 September 20243342413

Morse Farm, Morse Road, Gloucester, GL17 9AJ

Previously we have made a planning application for a shed to store hay and straw which was turned down due to lack of information, also the look of the building, so we have taken notice of this and change the look to more in keeping with the area. We need this urgently now because of the weather the animals are suffering due to standing on wet ground, they also need to be brought in which will be a third of the building. Gloucestershire Trading Standards requires these animals to be brought in off the ground until the weather improves. You will be able to see the design of the building is now much more in keeping with other buildings on the farm we have also made sure it is far enough away from the road and far enough away from any habitable buildings and ponds

Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the proposed development is necessary for or is to be used solely for agricultural purposes
  • the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area

What decided it

The Inspector's site observations confirming the necessity of the building for storing hay and providing shelter for livestock, combined with the conclusion that the building would not be visually prominent due to screening and its integration with the existing farm complex.

Plan policies cited: Policy CSP.1, Policy AP1, Policy AP4
