Elkstone Studios
–
Flexible Commercial
Location: Elkstone Studios, Elkstone
Case Type: Change of use of a disused agricultural workers dwelling to farm shop and cafe
Council: Cotswold District Council
Status: Approved
BPA has secured planning permission from Cotswold District Council for the change of use of a former grain store to flexible commercial use.
The development is located within the Elkstone Studios enterprise and comprises the final barn to secure permission on site. The development will benefit from the existing conversions of a mixture of commercial and leisure uses providing a small rural hub for both occupiers of the offices and the local community.
Building upon other successful permissions secured at this site, this development comprises an employment-generating use in association with an existing business, and relates to the diversification of a wider agricultural enterprise. It has been a real pleasure to assist in the diversification of this site and we can’t wait to see it complete and occupied!

Agricultural Building to 4-bed house, Malvern
Set within a rural location with extensive views of the Malvern Hills, BPA are delighted to have secured permission to convert an agricultural building into a 4 bedroom house.
The site contained a 20th Century barn of steel construction and metal cladding. Ordinarily, the conversion of this type of barn would not have been acceptable as it would not have met local planning policy. We therefore used the ‘Class Q’ permitted development route to secure consent for the client and whilst we have secured permission for many homes now under this process, this was a particularly challenging case requiring a very methodical approach.
Through our strong planning submission and positive engagement with the case officer, the application was approved within the 56-day statutory period.
This case provides a prime example of how planning consultants can help to unlock the value of a site. Please do get in touch with us if we can help with a similar project.

Replacement dwellinghouse secured following the grant of permission for a residential conversion of portal frame agricultural building in the Cotswolds. A beautiful Cotswold stone dwellinghouse to replace a far less attractive portal frame barn. This has been an interesting application where clearly setting out the planning benefits and working with local planning authority officers has resulted in the secure of permission.
