The site has capacity to accommodate at least 600–700 new dwellings, as well as employment, sports facilities and community infrastructure.

Low Lane, Holbeach
Low Lane, Holbeach

We took part in an appeal hearing, arguing that planning permission should be granted for 39 houses. We were appointed following the refusal of planning permission. To the north of the site is the A17, a busy road on which passing traffic generated a high level of noise. There was a need to incorporate noise […]

St Swithin’s Close, Bicker
St Swithin’s Close, Bicker

We took part in an appeal hearing, arguing that planning permission should be granted for up to 40 houses. We were appointed following the refusal of planning permission. The site is in the rural area, within Boston Borough. The adopted Local Plan generally sought to restrict housing in this village, and also specifically in areas […]

Longhope Farm, Hertford
Longhope Farm, Hertford

A house in the Green Belt with a large barn behind it, and extensive gardens in front. The house was not in an ideal position within the plot, being located in one corner, with little space around it. We gained a lawful development certificate to demonstrate that the building behind had a B8 commercial storage […]

White Horse, Hertingfordbury
White Horse, Hertingfordbury

The White Horse Hotel was a failing business, and the site was acquired by Sandhill Homes, a residential developer. Waller Planning were employed, with Bryant and Moore Architects, to seek planning permission for the redevelopment of the rear part of the site for housing, whilst the Grade II listed hotel building was to be refurbished. […]

Plank Drove, Crowland
Plank Drove, Crowland

Waller Planning supported a planning application for a new house in the countryside, a short distance outside the town of Crowland. Planning Officers recommended that the application should be refused, because it was contrary to local policies and would set an unwelcome precedent. The proposed house was a bespoke design by Studio11 Architecture, for a […]

Great North Road, Hatfield

We gained ‘prior approval’ for the change of use of this vacant office building to form 10 residential apartments. This process allowed for the change of use of the building, but no other amendments. In a further planning application we gained permission for alterations to the building which made more efficient use of the space […]

Zither, Brookmans Park
Zither, Brookmans Park

Working with Bryant + Moore Architects, we gained permission for the replacement of a house with a substantially larger (7 bedroom) house in the Green Belt. The original 1930s property had an existing planning permission for a series of extensions. Our client wanted to start again, and build an attractive new house suited to the […]

Station Road, Swineshead
Station Road, Swineshead

Our client owned a site comprising agricultural land and previously developed land just outside the settlement boundary of Swineshead, Lincolnshire. We worked with Studio 11 Architecture to create a design and layout for the development which was in keeping with the village location. While local policy restricts development outside the settlement boundary, we successfully argued […]

Media Centre, Hertford
Media Centre, Hertford

Media House was built in the 1950s and formed part of the Addis brush factory until the early 2000s, when it was converted to office use. With demand for office space declining, the Government have introduced a process to allow for their conversion to residential use. We firstly gained approval for the building’s change of […]

Spellbrook, Hertfordshire
Spellbrook, Hertfordshire

We successfully argued that garden land in a rural village in East Hertfordshire was a suitable location for infill residential development. The site is within the Green Belt, and housing was contrary to the policies of the Local Plan, accorded with national policy. We were able to persuade the Council through pre-application discussions that the […]
