Recently ECDC were unable to demonstrate that they had a five-year supply of building land.; the effect of this was to set aside local planning policies, particularly the development envelope, which generally restricted development to within the towns and villages.

The development of this site is an example of this type of development. We were approached by a property owner who had a large garden including a tennis court.

We applied for, and successfully obtained, outline planning permission initially for two detached houses. We then applied for the approval of reserved matters including the detailed design and this was also granted.

The site was sold and the properties have been built and are now occupied.
