PLANNING CONSULTANCY
Agricultural Building Schemes
BTF offers expert advice and end-to-end support for the design, planning, and delivery of agricultural building schemes. Whether you’re constructing a new grain store, livestock unit, machinery shed, or general-purpose building, we help ensure your project is fit for purpose, policy-compliant, and cost-effective. Our team works closely with farmers and landowners to prepare and submit planning applications, assess permitted development rights, and coordinate with architects, contractors, and local authorities. From initial concept to completion, we provide practical guidance to help you invest in the right infrastructure for your farming business—now and for the future.
REPRESENTING YOU THROUGHOUT
Our Services
Permitted Development & Prior Approvals
We assess whether your proposed building qualifies under agricultural permitted development rights and, where applicable, prepare and submit prior approval applications. This streamlined route can save time and cost—provided the right criteria are met.
Full Planning Applications
For projects that fall outside permitted development, we prepare and manage full planning applications. From gathering supporting documents to working with planning officers and responding to local policy, we ensure your application is professionally handled from start to finish.
New Buildings for Storage & Livestock
We advise on the development of grain stores, livestock housing, hay barns, and machinery sheds—ensuring your new buildings meet both operational needs and regulatory requirements. Our input helps maximise functionality, compliance, and return on investment.
Farmyard Redevelopment & Infrastructure Upgrades
If you’re reorganising your farmyard, replacing outdated buildings, or improving layout and access, we provide strategic advice on planning, layout, and long-term usability—balancing practical farm operations with planning considerations.
Diversification & Multi-Use Structures
We also support the planning and delivery of multi-use agricultural buildings that may serve diversification purposes, such as storage for third-party use, workshops, or processing facilities—always ensuring compliance with planning policy and land use designations.
