Planning application

Stonehouse Farm Thorington Road Thorington Saxmundham Suffolk IP17 3RB

Decided East Suffolk DC/26/1561/AGO Prior Notification Agricultural

Works: Windows or glazing Trees

Decided. The decision notice on the council portal carries the outcome in full, including any conditions.

Proposal

Prior Notification Agricultural - The two farms related to the track (walnut Tree Farm and Stonehouse Farm) are connected through ownership. The improvements of the tracks is essential for improving the efficiency of farm operations. The tracks will ensure a year-round access for farm machinery, which will enable better timeliness and ease of use for jobs which require mechanical assistance. This also extends the operational window, which allows contractors to work in more favourable conditions. Due to the very rural location of the site, there are no local roads which could serve the same purpose.
