Planning and legal points for land in Gloucestershire
Agricultural buildings (Class Q)
In England, Class Q permitted development can allow some agricultural buildings to become homes through prior approval, within limits on size and number of homes.
Heritage
Listed buildings and conservation areas are managed with Historic England and the council's conservation team.
Farm tenancies
Agricultural Holdings Act tenancies and farm business tenancies have their own notice and compensation rules, which affect when land can be developed.
Awkward details we deal with
You're not sure Class Q applies
In England, Class Q has detailed limits and conditions. We check eligibility before assuming it.
The barn is listed
Listed barns can still be converted with consent, but the design must respect the building.
Useful to send us
- A rough size, in acres or hectares
- A plan, or a screenshot from an online map
- Your title number, if you know it
- Photos of the land and its access
Your questions answered
Will you buy a barn in poor condition?
Yes, but condition affects the planning route and the cost, so it affects the price.
Do I need surveys before selling?
No. We arrange what we need. If you already have structural or ecology surveys, they help.
Can I sell buildings and keep the land around them?
Yes. We can agree a boundary that suits both of us, with access rights protected.
Do you buy land in Mangotsfield?
Yes. We consider land in and around Mangotsfield and across Gloucestershire. Whether we can make an offer depends on the land itself, especially its access and planning prospects, and we'll tell you either way.
