AGM were instructed by a longterm rural client to help them relocate their agricultural and equestrian business.

By understanding the clients end goals AGM were able to suggest a strategy moving forward that we strongly believed would be successful.

This involved, in the first instance, obtaining Prior Approval under Class A for the erection of a new agriclutral barn at the maximum size allowed under Permitted Development.

Following the Prior Approval consent, a follow up Change of Use application was submitted to allow the barn to be used for equestrian purposes alongside its agricultural use. This allowed the barn to be used for both parts of the clients business.

Follow up applications are expected to expand the business in the future.

John and his brilliant team at AGM have exceeded my expectations of what a planning consultancy is about. They really understood the clients vision and went above and beyond to help deliver it. From the outset, John and Lucy assembled a great team of skilled professionals. I was very grateful to have AGM alongside to help steer the ship to success.

Our go-to agency is always AGM. John and his team work closely and effectively and have a 100% success record for our projects. AGM’s understanding of listed buildings and the planning system is invaluable, and we look forward to continuing our relationship long into the future.

We cannot thank AGM enough as we would not have got our full planning permission without their amazing help. Their guidance, kind words and patience through all the paperwork that we otherwise wouldn’t have been able to understand was thoroughly appreciated. We will be recommending them to everyone. Thank you all very much AGM!
