When I was living in Kent before I knew this builder who bought a farm with disused building on it. He could not get planning permission to convert into house to live there. Local’s didn’t want him bringing equipment up and down their lane. So the only way he could get planning was as a farm workers accomadition. He tried several time to get that, as he originaly just wanted to have chickens, but they said he had to be animals that required overnight attention (breeding hourses could work)
In the end he decided to get planning and his own back on the locals who objected by building sheds for 1600 pigs right next to the back gardens of his new neighbours.
Ask at the local planning office what they will accept.Fiscal nomad it's legal.Comment
