GROESFFORDD BACH, Whitford, Holywell, CH8 8SD
The proposed building is for agricultural use as the agricultural business is expanding and the number of livestock increasing. The new building will be used for the storage hay, straw and feed and will be located within close proximity of the existing buildings on the holding. As the number of cattle in particular has increased the purchase and storage of greater quantities of feed and straw is necessary. The applicant also prefers to make say as his view is that is less expensive and more environmentally friendly as there is not use of plastic wrap and fewer tractor operations are required to make it so less diesel is used. To be able to store a greater number of bales and tonnage of feed this building is required
