What is the difference between Green Belt and Greenfield?

Feb 27, 2024

The term "Green Belt" should never be confused with "Greenfield". These are not the same thing!

This article will help you to understand the difference which is extremely important in planning terms. The Green Belt forms part of the National Planning Policy Framework planning policy whilst Greenfield is a topographical description of land which is being considered for future development.

Do you need planning for a new agricultural gateway?

Feb 20, 2024

If you are creating a new gateway onto a road classified as A, B or C, then you will need planning consent from your local planning authority.

However, if the lane or track is unclassified, permission is not required unless substantial engineering works are involved such as soil excavation and/or bank excavation.

Grab a slice of Wychavon Rural Fund

Feb 05, 2024

Are you in a rural area within the district of Wychavon?

Rural businesses and communities can now apply for a new round of the Wychavon Rural Fund. You need to be quick as the deadline for expressions of interest is the 26th February 2024.

The money can be used by small or micro businesses in rural areas, including farmers, to diversify into other sectors and grow tourism. The money can only be used to fund physical projects such as new buildings or renovations and not for staff or day-to day running costs.

If you need help with the planning, give us a call!
