Planning Advice Note: PAN 39: Farm and Forestry Buildings

« Previous | Contents | Next »

Listen

preface

This Planning Advice Note sets out general advice on the siting and design of farm and forestry buildings to stimulate planning authorities to prepare both clear development plan policies and, where appropriate, local siting and design guidance. In turn this should:

  • encourage new development which is located and designed with respect for the character of rural areas;
  • assist the effective implementation of the new notification system as well as the existing system of planning control where appropriate; and
  • minimise the number of notifications for which authorities require the submission of details.

The advice note should also help those involved in designing and constructing new farm and forestry buildings.
