TOWN AND COUNTRY PLANNING We have not made any specific enquiries of the Local Planning Authority but in our opinion the existing property could be refurnished and extended (subject to consent ) to provide good sized family accommodation. It is also considered that the site could be redeveloped as a single individual property taking advantage of the outstanding views and the large footprint of the existing dwelling. Interested parties should satisfy themselves by making their own enquiries of Stroud DC’s planning department from whom permission would be required.
