An update on the Holywell Apartment building development. The project is looking good with the Contractor completing the roof construction, the exterior walls, the pre-cast concrete elements as well as the internal stud partitioning layout. 1st fix mechanical and electrical are programmed to start on site within the next week or so.

AC|A have been approached and instructed to provide architectural support to a number of recent domestic projects across Shropshire, Cheshire, Flintshire and Wrexham. We have superb relationships with all these councils and pride ourselves on high success rates in planning, building control and completed works on site.

For those that do not already know, permitted development rights changed  as of April 2014. You can convert redundant agricultural buildings to residential dwellings without the need to apply for planning permission. The changes only apply in England and came into effect on the 6th April 2014. It allows the conversion of the agricultural rural buildings into either 3 dwellings or a maximum of 450sqm of residential space. Listed buildings and buildings within areas of either conservation or natural beauty are exempt from the change.

AC | Architecture Ltd can happily confirm that following detailed conversations with Shropshire Councils planning policy department, NO affordable housing contribution will be required if indeed the conversion falls under permitted development. This could save potential developers, farm owners and agricultural land owners approximately £12,000 in affordable housing contributions to the council per unit.
