Redevelopment of Farm Buildings
Don't let redevelopment opportunities pass you by
Your farm buildings are an asset which can provide you with an alternative income which will benefit your business and your capital value.
Investment in the Countryside
Most Local Authorities have planning policies which now positively encourage the redevelopment of redundant farm buildings, usually for employment uses, but, in some circumstances, for residential development. In addition, the Government have recently been providing grants for planning appraisals to be carried out.
Despite the many changes we have witnessed over recent years, the British countryside still exists and requires ever more careful management. The emphasis of rural land management is shifting, with greater emphasis being placed on conservation and the integration of farming with environmentally friendly systems. Symonds & Sampson LLP believe that a strong agricultural industry remains the keystone to both a prosperous and vibrant countryside, and we are here to provide knowledge and expertise on a wide range of matters that will be of immense importance.

We would just like to say a huge thank you for all the time, effort and expertise you have shown us when dealing with both the machinery sale and subsequently the formal letting of the farm.
I thank you sincerely for your exceptionally useful help in working out how best to respond to the recent overage buy-out offer, we are very appreciative. I really welcome all the truly excellent professional assistance that we receive in north Dorset with regard to financial matters.
I wanted to thank you very much for all your guidance and help you have given us in getting the approval for the new dwelling on the farm. It is very good news. Your help and input has been the key factor to us getting planning permission.
