Dwellings on Farms/Farm Dwellings CTY-10

Contrary to what many people think, this category is not just for people who work in agriculture, or farmers.
This category is actually for land owners who would like to get a site passed on their own land, for themselves, for a child or relation, or even to sell on.

There is no restriction on selling the site for financial gain and this decision to sell doesn't effect your chances of receiving planning approval.

Planning permission in this category will be approved once every 10years.
so once you receive approval, the clock starts counting down until 10years later when you can apply for another one, therefore if you do choose to sell your site then you cant get another for 10years.

Its worth mentioning though that this rule only applies to this category; dwelling on a farm.
this means if you receive approval for a dwelling on a farm then you can still apply for more sites under any of the other policys, such as replacements, barn conversions, infill sites etc.

There is certain rules that you need to adhere to in order to obtain approval for a dwelling on a farm such as:
proximity to farm buildings or farm dwelling
farm business ID Number
access to public road
