A few weeks ago, one of our Planners was invited on a tour of a development that she obtained the permission for a couple of years ago!
It’s always a fantastic feeling to be able to see a finished project in person knowing you had an input in its creation.

It’s fantastic to see that our client’s development is coming along nicely!
These two units will provide smart, modern family homes in a village within the Kent Downs. They are soon to be followed by a third, for which Bloomfields recently obtained planning permission.

Bloomfields obtained permission for the erection of a large dwelling and access.
We were approached by the client due to a historic refusal of planning permission on the site, and many constraints surrounding it (AONB, TPOs).

Bloomfields successfully secured the discharge of a S106 agreement. This now permits the landowner to dispose of two barn conversions, and removes the restraint on the property to only be used as an agricultural dwelling.
