Delighted to have secured full planning permission for a replacement house in the Shropshire countryside.
The project involves demolishing an extended cottage dating back to the mid-1800s and replacing it with a larger home in a different orientation. There were several hurdles to overcome, including the size and positioning of the proposed house and whether demolition of the original cottage was acceptable in planning terms.
From the initial advice and pre-application enquiry through to the full planning application, Shaun Jones Planning and Rural guided the clients through the planning process to achieve a successful result.
It’s always rewarding to help clients move forward with their plans, particularly when a proposal raises several planning challenges.
Thank you to Wendy for the kind words and for trusting Shaun Jones Planning and Rural with the project.

Shaun will be at this year's 93rd Cruckton & District Ploughing & Hedging Society ploughing match tomorrow.

He'll be starting the day volunteering on the gate, before spending the afternoon catching up with people, making connections and enjoying the ploughing match. It's always nice to volunteer, give something back and be part of the local rural community.

If you're there, feel free to stop Shaun for a chat, whether you want to talk planning, rural matters, farming or simply say hello. It's a great opportunity to catch up with familiar faces and meet new ones.

Proud to support British farming.

Working alongside farmers and rural businesses, we see the dedication, resilience and sheer hard work that goes into keeping family farms and rural businesses moving forward.

Farming is about much more than producing food. It’s about looking after our countryside, supporting rural communities and creating opportunities for the next generation.

The challenges are significant, but so are the opportunities. Good planning can play an important part in helping farms diversify, adapt and build a sustainable future.

The Government has now confirmed changes to Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG) requirements, following the proposals announced in April. These changes will apply to all planning applications submitted from 6 August 2026.
New exemptions include:
✅ Development on sites of 0.2 hectares or less (excluding sites containing priority habitats).
✅ Temporary planning permissions of 5 years or less.
✅ Development where the primary purpose is biodiversity conservation or enhancement.
✅ Improvements to parks, playing fields and public gardens.
Exemption removed:
❌ The existing BNG exemption for custom and self-build developments will no longer apply.
If you're preparing a planning application, it's important to understand how these changes could affect your project. Early advice can help avoid delays and ensure your application meets the latest requirements.
If you'd like to discuss how these updates impact your development, get in touch with Shaun Jones on 07989 741 709.
