Hi
we are looking at buying a plot (essentially a large back garden) of a house that is located in the countryside
Council are is Falkirk in Central Scotland
Initial response from planning dept is that the proposal would probably be rejected as
1. Local plan does not permit the building of a new house in the countryside
2. As this plot is essentially a part of the back garden of a property (not all of it) they would consider it as Back Land Development - which, apparently, they also frown upon
So, rules is rules and all that - so my plans could well be scuppered before they start....however, anyone any experience with this type of proposal and have they been able to get a proposal approved?
Thanks
SB
